Comparison of the genomes of two Xanthomonas pathogens with differing host specificities

A.C.R. da Silva, +65 more
TL;DR: The genus Xanthomonas is a diverse and economically important group of bacterial phytopathogens, belonging to the γ-subdivision of the Proteobacteria, and several groups of strain-specific genes are identified and proposed mechanisms that may explain the differing host specificities and pathogenic processes are proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genome of woodland strawberry ( Fragaria vesca )

Vladimir Shulaev, +71 more
- 01 Feb 2011 - 
TL;DR: New phylogenetic analysis of 154 protein-coding genes suggests that assignment of Populus to Malvidae, rather than Fabidae, is warranted, and macrosyntenic relationships between Fragaria and Prunus predict a hypothetical ancestral Rosaceae genome that had nine chromosomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genome sequence of the plant pathogen Xylella fastidiosa

Andrew J. G. Simpson, +117 more
- 13 Jul 2000 - 
TL;DR: The complete genome sequence of X. fastidiosa clone 9a5c is reported, providing direct evidence of phage-mediated horizontal gene transfer and indicating that the molecular basis for bacterial pathogenicity is both conserved and independent of host.

Introduction to Computational Molecular Biology

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the construction of phylogenetic trees, a type of tree-building based on DNA assembly, and its applications in medicine, dentistry, and neuroscience.
