Journal ArticleDOI

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 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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative Genomics of Two Leptospira interrogans Serovars Reveals Novel Insights into Physiology and Pathogenesis

Ana L. T. O. Nascimento, +48 more
TL;DR: Genome sequence analysis elucidates many of the novel aspects of leptospiral physiology relating to energy metabolism, oxygen tolerance, two-component signal transduction systems, and mechanisms of pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative analyses of the complete genome sequences of Pierce's disease and citrus variegated chlorosis strains of Xylella fastidiosa

TL;DR: The genome sequence of X. fastidiosa (Temecula strain) is reported and it is concluded that these two organisms have identical metabolic functions and are likely to use a common set of genes in plant colonization and pathogenesis, permitting convergence of functional genomic strategies.
