Host factors that are important for infection of Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri by the filamentous bacteriophage cf were investigated by transposon mutagenesis with Tn5tac1. A mutant, XT501, that was resistant to cf infection was recovered, showing that the gene inactivated by the transposon is required for infection by the phage but not for cf ...

Molecular Characterization and Expression of the recX Gene of Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri
Current Microbiology, 2001Two genes important in DNA repair, recA and lexA, were recently identified in Xanthomonas campestris pathovar citri (X.c. pv. citri). An open reading frame located immediately downstream of lexA and recA has now been isolated from this pathovar and characterized. This 486-bp open reading frame encodes a protein of 162 amino acids and shares substantial

Neolysogenization of Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri infected with filamentous phage Cf16
Virology, 1987All previously described filamentous bacteriophages are capable of persistent infection while their DNA replicates as an episome in the host cell. Filamentous phage Cf16 undergoes an infectious cycle different from other filamentous phages reported heretofore.

Reinstatement of Xanthomonas citri (ex Hasse) and X. phaseoli (ex Smith) to Species and Reclassification of All X. campestris pv. citri Strains [PDF]
A recent epiphytotic disease on citrus in Florida nurseries was caused by strains of Xanthomonas campestris with different host specificity and lower pathogenic capacities than those of previously described strains of X. campestris pv. citri. The new strains were classified as X. campestris pv.

The LYSOGENIC CYCLE OF THE FILAMENTOUS PHAGE Cflt from Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri
Virology, 1987A phage, Cflt, forming turbid plaques, was isolated from Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri. After infection, infected sensitive cells become immune to Cflt and produce very few phages. These properties were genetically rather stable. The phage was purified and shown to be filamentous with a size of 1157 +/- 73 nm. The genome size is about 7.62 kb.

Antibacterial activity of plant diffusate against Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri
International Journal of Pest Management, 1997Two hundred and eight diffusates from various plants such as forest trees, herbs, shrubs, fruit trees, spices, vegetables, food legumes, fodder, oil seed, fibre crops, cereals and ornamentals were evaluated through agar diffusion assay to determine their inhibitory action, if any, against Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri .

AbstractThree amicarthiazol‐resistant mutants (Xuv10, Xuv20 and Xuv40) were obtained by UV induction and used in this study. Minimal inhibition concentrations (MICs) of amicarthiazol against the growth of mutants and wild‐type isolate were 400 and 100 µg ml−1 respectively.

Management of Citrus Canker by Eradication of Xanthomonas Campestris pv. Citri
1987Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri was eradicated from Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and the United States during the first half of the 20th century, but was not eradicated in Brazil and Argentina in more recent times. The geographical range of citrus canker continues to enlarge; the bacterium was introduced into Mexico and Yemen Arab Republic ...

Regulation of ethylene biosynthesis in citrus leaves infected with Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri
Physiologia Plantarum, 1991Inoculation of Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf. x Citrus Paradisi Macf. (Swingle citrumelo) leaves with Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri (Hasse) Dye (Xc). a nursery strain of bacteria causing citrus canker, induced significant ethylene production. No ethylene biosynthesis was induced by Xanthomonas campestris pv. dieffenbachiae (McCulloh and Pirrone) Dye (
