Lytic properties and genomic analysis of bacteriophage Brt_Psa3, targeting Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae [PDF]
Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) is the causative agent of bacterial canker in kiwifruit (Actinidia spp.). Psa biovar 3 is the most prevalent and virulent, causing frequent and severe outbreaks worldwide.

The Enzyme Glucose-1-Phosphate Thymidylyltransferase RmlA Plays a Crucial Role in the Pathogenesis of Pectobacterium actinidiae GX1. [PDF]
Deletion of the rmlA gene negatively affected PCAP‐1a yield, structure and directly diminished GX1 pathogenicity. Furthermore, mutations within RmlA's substrate binding site impaired its ability to bind G‐1‐P and dTTP. ABSTRACT Pectobacterium actinidiae is one of the primary pathogens that causes summer canker disease in kiwifruit, yet its pathogenic ...

New insights on the bacterial canker of kiwifruit (Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae)
Since 2008, Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae, the causal agent of bacterial canker of kiwifruit has become the main pathogen of yellow and green fleshed kiwifruit. All major kiwifruit producing countries in the world have been affected by this bacterial pathogen, leading to substantial economic losses.

Influence of cultural practices on the incidence and severity of kiwifruit bacterial canker
Italy has a preeminent rank in kiwifruit industry, being the first exporter and the second largest producer after China. However, in the last years kiwifruit yields and the global cultivated area considerably decreased, due to the pandemic spread of the bacterial canker caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa).

Control of Bacterial Canker in Kiwifruit Using Botanical Products from Adesmia balsamica Bertero ex Colla in Kiwifruit cv. Hayward Orchards [PDF]
Global kiwifruit production has been severely affected by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa), which causes kiwifruit bacterial canker. The main strategies for controlling this pathogen involve the use of copper-based compounds and antibiotics ...

Elicitor induction of defence genes and reduction of bacterial canker in kiwifruit
Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa), which causes bacterial canker, is the most serious global pathogen of kiwifruit. Like most bacterial pathogens, control options are limited, but elicitors can reduce disease significantly, particularly those that induce the salicylic acid (SA) pathway.

Kiwifruit bacterial canker: novel insights on an old problem
Framework: Kiwifruit bacterial canker (KBC), caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (PSA), is currently the most destructive disease of kiwifruit worldwide. It was introduced in Portugal in 2010, inducing production losses up to 80 %.

RetS-mediated environmental sensing coordinates TetR-dependent regulation of type III secretion system and virulence in Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae [PDF]
Kiwifruit bacterial canker, caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa), is an emerging global concern in kiwifruit production. Successful Psa infection in kiwifruit relies on the type III secretion system (T3SS), which is governed by the HrpR/S ...
