A TALE of Transposition: Tn3-Like Transposons Play a Major Role in the Spread of Pathogenicity Determinants of Xanthomonas citri and Other Xanthomonads

open access: yesmBio, 2015
Members of the genus Xanthomonas are among the most important phytopathogens. A key feature of Xanthomonas pathogenesis is the translocation of type III secretion system (T3SS) effector proteins (T3SEs) into the plant target cells via a T3SS.

Using Ecology, Physiology, and Genomics to Understand Host Specificity in Xanthomonas.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Phytopathology, 2016
How pathogens coevolve with and adapt to their hosts are critical to understanding how host jumps and/or acquisition of novel traits can lead to new disease emergences.

VqERF1B‐VqERF062‐VqNSTS2 transcriptional cascade enhances stilbene biosynthesis and resistance to powdery mildew in grapevine

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Grapes, as one of the world's oldest economic crops, are severely affected by grape powdery mildew, causing significant economic losses. As a phytoalexin against powdery mildew, stilbenes and their key synthetic gene, stilbene synthase (STS), are highly sought after by researchers.

Evolution of Xanthomonas Gene Content: Gene Gain/Loss History and Species Divergence

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Agriculture, 2012
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) plays key roles in the evolution of pathogenetic bacteria, especially in pathogenetic associated genes. In this study, the evolutionary dynamics of Xanthomonas at species level were determined by the comparative analysis of

Xanthomonas citri jumbo phage XacN1 exhibits a wide host range and high complement of tRNA genes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Xanthomonas virus (phage) XacN1 is a novel jumbo myovirus infecting Xanthomonas citri, the causative agent of Asian citrus canker. Its linear 384,670 bp double-stranded DNA genome encodes 592 proteins and presents the longest (66 kbp) direct terminal ...

Taxonogenomic analysis of the Xanthomonas translucens complex leads to the descriptions of Xanthomonas cerealis sp. nov. and Xanthomonas graminis sp. nov.

open access: yesInternational Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology
The pathovar-based taxonomy of the Xanthomonas translucens group is very confusing due to an overlap of plant host ranges and level of host specificity. Here, whole-genome sequence-based parameters (digital DNA–DNA hybridization and blast-based average nucleotide identity), phylogenomic, biochemical and phenotypical data were used to taxonomically ...

Somatic embryogenetic receptor kinase TaSERL2 regulates heat stress tolerance in wheat by influencing TaBZR2 protein stability and transcriptional activity

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
Summary Heat stress is a major factor limiting crop yield, a challenge intensified by climate change. Initial findings indicate that BES1/BZR1 may use heat shock to regulate plant thermal adaptability independently of BIN2‐mediated brassinosteroid signalling, although the exact molecular mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we identified TaBZR2, a

Secrete or perish: The role of secretion systems in Xanthomonas biology

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021
Bacteria of the Xanthomonas genus are mainly phytopathogens of a large variety of crops of economic importance worldwide. Xanthomonas spp. rely on an arsenal of protein effectors, toxins and adhesins to adapt to the environment, compete with other ...

Genetic characterization of strains named as Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. dieffenbachiae leads to a taxonomic revision of the X. axonopodis species complex

open access: yes, 2016
Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. dieffenbachiae (Xad) is the causal agent of anthurium bacterial blight and listed as an A2 quarantine organism by EPPO. However, the name Xad covers a variety of strains.

A stage‐dependent seed defense response to explain efficient seed transmission of Xanthomonas citri pv. fuscans to common bean

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
Abstract Although seed represents an important means of plant pathogen dispersion, the seed–pathogen dialogue remains largely unexplored. A multiomic approach was performed at different seed developmental stages of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) during asymptomatic colonization by Xanthomonas citri pv.
