Pectobacterium nicotianae sp. nov., a novel pathogen causing tobacco hollow stalk disease, is phylogenetically distinct from P. brasiliense [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceFive Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic bacteria were isolated from the hollow stalk tissues of tobacco plants in Yunnan, China. Based on polyphasic taxonomic data, they were identified as a new Pectobacterium species.

A Novel Plant Secondary Metabolite-Binding Gene Family Required for Full Virulence in Pectobacterium parvum. [PDF]
Mol Plant PatholA newly identified virulence family from Pectobacterium parvum that binds plant defensive compounds (e.g., solanidine) with high affinity enhances bacterial tolerance and is required for full virulence. This trade‐off between defence and growth reveals a key host‐adaptation strategy.

Role and regulation of the Flp/Tad pilus in the virulence of Pectobacterium atrosepticum SCRI1043 and Pectobacterium wasabiae SCC3193. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 In this study, we characterized a putative Flp/Tad pilus-encoding gene cluster, and we examined its regulation at the transcriptional level and its role in the virulence of potato pathogenic enterobacteria of the genus Pectobacterium.
