The new update of the European Food Safety Authority database of Xylella spp. host plant species
Following the Xylella fastidiosa outbreak in Italy in 2013, EFSA was requested by the European Commission to provide scientific assistance on this plant pathogenic bacterium. EFSA published several scientific opinions on this topic, all included in the EFSA Journal virtual issue on X.

Decoding the genetic and functional diversity of the DSF Quorum-Sensing system in Stenotrophomonas maltophilia [PDF]
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia uses the Diffusible Signal Factor (DSF) quorum sensing (QS) system to mediate intra- and inter-specific signaling and regulate virulence-related processes.

What makes Xanthomonas albilineans unique amongst xanthomonads? [PDF]
Xanthomonas albilineans causes leaf scald, a lethal disease of sugarcane. Compared to other species of Xanthomonas, X. albilineans exhibits distinctive pathogenic mechanisms, ecology and taxonomy.

Bacteriophages and bacterial plant diseases [PDF]
Losses in crop yields due to disease need to be reduced in order to meet increasing global food demands associated with growth in the human population. There is a well-recognized need to develop new environmentally friendly control strategies to combat ...

Bacterial pathogenesis of plants: Future challenges from a microbial perspective [PDF]
Plant infection is a complicated process. Upon encountering a plant, pathogenic microorganisms must first adapt to life on the epiphytic surface, and survive long enough to initiate an infection.

Interactions between endophytes and plants can promote the health of the host and play a significant role in low-input sustainable agriculture. Understanding this plant–microbe interactions and the mechanisms that enable endophytes to enhance the plant defence response is essential, especially for endophytic bacteria that show biocontrol potential ...
