Rhizoviticin is an alphaproteobacterial tailocin that mediates biocontrol of grapevine crown gall disease. [PDF]

ISME J
Abstract Tailocins are headless phage tail structures that mediate interbacterial antagonism. Although the prototypical tailocins, R- and F-pyocins, in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and other predominantly R-type tailocins have been studied, their presence in Alphaproteobacteria remains unexplored.

Crown Gall Induced by a Natural Isolate of Brucella (Ochrobactrum) pseudogrignonense Containing a Tumor-Inducing Plasmid [PDF]

Microorganisms
Crown gall disease in plants is caused by “Agrobacteria”, bacteria belonging to the Rhizobiaceae family, which carry a tumor-inducing (Ti) plasmid. Unexpectedly, we found evidence that a natural isolate from a rose crown gall, called NBC51/LBA8980, was a

Plipastatins Directly Inhibit Agrobacteria and Prevent Crown Gall Disease

PhytoFrontiers
Diseases severely impact plant growth and productivity. Here, we sought to identify new products for preventing agrobacteria from causing crown gall disease, which can affect many agriculturally important crop species.

Biological Control of Grapevine Crown Gall Disease, Caused by Allorhizobium vitis, Using Paraburkholderia phytofirmans PsJN

PhytoFrontiers, 2022
Controlling crown gall in grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) caused by the pathogenic bacterium Allorhizobium vitis is a major challenge for global viticulture, as this pathogen is highly persistent in vineyards once infected. The bacteria can enter the plant

Crown gall can spread between walnut trees in nurseries and reduce future yields

California Agriculture, 2008
While walnut trees on Juglans hindsiix J. regia ‘Paradox’ rootstocks are highly susceptible to crown gall, it is unknown whether this bacterial disease is acquired in the nursery or the orchard.
