A protein expression system for tandem affinity purification in Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri
Brazilian Journal of Microbiology, 2016 Citrus canker, caused by the Gram-negative bacterium Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xac), is one of the most devastating diseases to affect citrus crops. There is no treatment for citrus canker; effective control against the spread of Xac is usually achieved by the elimination of affected plants along with that of asymptomatic neighbors.

Structure-function analysis of the HrpB2-HrcU interaction in the Xanthomonas citri type III secretion system. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Bacterial type III secretion systems deliver protein virulence factors to host cells. Here we characterize the interaction between HrpB2, a small protein secreted by the Xanthomonas citri subsp.

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2012 Xanthomonas citri subsp citri (Xac) is the bacterium responsible for citrus canker disease in citrus plants. The aim of this study was to describe the recombinant expression, purification, and characterization of a cysteine peptidase from Xac strain 306, which is a candidate for involvement in the pathogenicity of this bacterium.

Fungal Extracts as Biocontrol of Growth, Biofilm Formation, and Motility of Xanthomonas citri subsp. Citri [PDF]
Global Journal of Agricultural Innovation, Research & Development, 2019 For the present work, Metarhizium rileyi, a common entomopathogenic fungus, was grown in batch conditions in the absence and presence of its host, Spodoptera frugiperda, to obtain secondary metabolites with potential antimicrobial effect. The extraction of secondary metabolites was carried out by using two solvent systems for the biomass (ethyl ...

Microbiology, 2013 Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc) develops a biofilm structure both in vitro and in vivo. Despite all the progress achieved by studies regarding biofilm formation, many of its mechanisms remain poorly understood. This work focuses on the identification of new genes involved in biofilm formation and how they are related to motility, virulence and ...
