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

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome Sequence of Azotobacter vinelandii, an Obligate Aerobe Specialized To Support Diverse Anaerobic Metabolic Processes

TL;DR: The complete genome sequence of A. vinelandii DJ is reported, which identified the chromosomal locations of the genes coding for the three known oxygen-sensitive nitrogenases, as well as genes codes for other oxygen- sensitive enzymes, such as carbon monoxide dehydrogenase and formate dehydrogen enzyme.
