Co-occurrence of latent Dickeya and Pectobacterium species in potato seed tuber samples from northern Finland

Agricultural and Food Science, 2021
Recent methodological developments have uncovered the etiological diversity of the potato blackleg and soft rot Pectobacteriaceae. At least five species in the genera Dickeya and Pectobacterium have been confirmed to cause blackleg on potatoes in Finland.

Die-off of plant pathogenic bacteria in tile drainage and anoxic water from a managed aquifer recharge site.

PLoS ONE, 2021
Managed aquifer recharge (MAR) can provide irrigation water and overcome water scarcity in agriculture. Removal of potentially present plant pathogens during MAR is essential to prevent crop diseases.

The Broad Host Range Plant Pathogen Dickeya dianthicola Shows a High Genetic Diversity

Microorganisms, 2022
The wide host range phytopathogen D. dianthicola, first described in ornamentals in the 1950s, rapidly became a threat for potato production in Europe and, more recently, worldwide.

Phytochemical Screening and Antibacterial Activity of Taxus baccata L. against Pectobacterium spp. and Dickeya chrysanthemi

Horticulturae, 2023
The yew tree (Taxus baccata L.) is considered in folklore a symbol of immortality due to its qualities of longevity and regeneration. Despite its poisonous reputation, the yew tree has a long history of medicinal use, particularly in the form of extracts

Genomic and Functional Dissections of Dickeya zeae Shed Light on the Role of Type III Secretion System and Cell Wall-Degrading Enzymes to Host Range and Virulence

Microbiology Spectrum, 2022
Dickeya zeae is a worldwide destructive pathogen that causes soft rot diseases on various hosts such as rice, maize, banana, and potato. The strain JZL7 we recently isolated from clivia represents the first monocot-specific D.

The Modification of Plant Cell Wall Polysaccharides in Potato Plants during Pectobacterium atrosepticum-Caused Infection

Plants, 2021
Our study is the first to consider the changes in the entire set of matrix plant cell wall (PCW) polysaccharides in the course of a plant infectious disease.

Fast and reliable screening assay developed to preselect candidate Soft Rot Pectobacteriaceae Tn5 mutants showing resistance to bacteriophage infection [PDF]

European Journal of Plant Pathology, 2019
We present a simple, fast and inexpensive screening assay to preselect candidate Pectobacterium spp. and Dickeya spp. Tn5 mutants, which carry transposon insertions in genes putatively encoding proteins used by lytic bacteriophages to interact with host cells, for the follow-up studies.

The Pectobacterium pangenome, with a focus on Pectobacterium brasiliense, shows a robust core and extensive exchange of genes from a shared gene pool

BMC Genomics, 2021
Background Bacterial plant pathogens of the Pectobacterium genus are responsible for a wide spectrum of diseases in plants, including important crops such as potato, tomato, lettuce, and banana. Investigation of the genetic diversity underlying virulence

Biosensors Used for Epifluorescence and Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopies to Study Dickeya and Pectobacterium Virulence and Biocontrol

Microorganisms, 2021
Promoter-probe vectors carrying fluorescent protein-reporter genes are powerful tools used to study microbial ecology, epidemiology, and etiology. In addition, they provide direct visual evidence of molecular interactions related to cell physiology and ...

Genome-informed loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay for specific detection of Pectobacterium parmentieri in infected potato tissues and soil

Scientific Reports, 2021
Pectobacterium parmentieri (formerly Pectobacterium wasabiae), which causes soft rot disease in potatoes, is a newly established species of pectinolytic bacteria within the family Pectobacteriaceae.
