Isolation and characterization of a generalized transducing phage for Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris.

Isolation and characterization of a porin-like outer membrane protein from Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris.

Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, a plant-associated pathogenic bacterium, is the causal agent of foliar spots and blights in crucifers. The major outer membrane protein, Omp37, of 37 kDa, has been identified, purified to homogeneity, and its characterization has also been carried out. Native Omp37 behaved as a trimer, as revealed by gel filtration and SDS-PAGE. FTIR measurements revealed ...

Use of Monoclonal Antibodies to Monitor the Dissemination of Xanthomonas campestris pv . campestris

Yuen, G. Y., Alvarez, A. M., Benedict, A. A., and Trotter, K. J. 1987. Use of monoclonal antibodies'to monitor the dissemination of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris. Phytopathology 77:366-370. Monoclonal antibodies (MCA) were used to detect and differentiate on FS from 98% of samples (341 of 348) of lesions with definite black rot strains of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris isolated f...

The A protein of the filamentous bacteriophage Cf of Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri.

Filamentous bacteriophages have very strict host specificities. Experiments were performed to investigate whether the A protein of the filamentous phage Cf, which infects Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri but not X. campestris pv. oryzae, is involved in determining Cf's host specificity. The gene encoding the A protein of Cf was cloned and expressed in X. campestris pv. citri. The genomic DNA of...

Characterization of Xanthomonas campestris Pathovars by rRNA Gene Restriction Patterns.

Genomic DNA of 191 strains of the family Pseudomonadaceae, including 187 strains of the genus Xanthomonas, was cleaved by EcoRI endonuclease. After hybridization of Southern transfer blots with 2-acetylamino-fluorene-labelled Escherichia coli 16+23S rRNA probe, 27 different patterns were obtained. The strains are clearly distinguishable at the genus, species, and pathovar levels. The variabilit...
