TL;DR: A global analysis of the whole SUCEST data set indicated that 14,409 assembled sequences contained at least one cDNA clone with a full-length insert, which indicated that possibly 33,620 unique genes had been identified and indicated that >90% of the sugarcane expressed genes were tagged.

TL;DR: The results suggest the possible conservation of pathogenicity and virulence mechanisms among fungi, expand considerably gene identification in P. brasiliensis, and provide a broader basis for further progress in understanding its biological peculiarities.

TL;DR: Findings are consistent with the nutritionally fastidious behavior exhibited by L. xyli and suggest an ongoing adaptation to the restricted ecological niche it inhabits, and are similar to those in free-living organisms.

TL;DR: The results set the stage for further studies involving NTBC and its derivatives as new chemotherapeutic agents against PCM and confirm the potential of array-based approaches to identify new targets for the development of alternative treatments against pathogenic microorganisms.

TL;DR: In this article, the plant pathogen Xylella fastidiosa grows as a biofilm, which is a community of microorganisms attached to a solid surface, showing higher resistance to biocides, detergent, antibiotic treatments and host defense responses.
