Disruption of Xylella fastidiosa CVC gumB and gumF genes affects biofilm formation without a detectable influence on exopolysaccharide production
Xylella fastidiosa causes citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC), a destructive disease of citrus. Xylella fastidiosa forms a biofilm inside plants and insect vectors. Biofilms are complex structures in...
High-quality mutant libraries of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae and X-campestris pv. campestris generated by an efficient transposon mutagenesis system
A novel transposon mutagenesis system for the phytopathogenic bacteria Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and X campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) was developed using a Tn5-based transposome. A highl...
Quorum sensing and virulence regulation in Xanthomonas campestris
It is now clear that cell-cell communication, often referred to as quorum sensing (QS), is the norm in the prokaryotic kingdom and this community-wide genetic regulatory mechanism has been adopted ...
Spectroscopic Characterization of the Exopolysaccharide of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri in Cu2+ Resistance Mechanism
We analyzed the role of exopolysaccharide in the Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac) Cu2+ resistance mechanism by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and nuc...
