Most risk analysis studies in invasion biology have focused on the invasiveness of non-native species, even though some native species also can pose a high to environment and human well-being. This is especially true under current global change, which may cause dominant expand their range distribution substantial effects ecosystem. In this study, five plant Turkey was evaluated using standard s...

The uvrB gene of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, a Gram-negative plant pathogenic bacterium inhabiting soil and infected plants, was cloned and sequenced. This gene has the capacity to encode a polypeptide of 673 amino acid residues with a calculated molecular mass of 75.9 kDa. Its deduced amino acid sequence shows a high degree of similarity and possesses domain conservation to those of...

Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris is a necrotrophic bacterial pathogen of crucifers. We report here the draft genome sequences of isolates ICMP 4013 and ICMP 21080 from New Zealand. These sequences will facilitate the identification of race-specific factors in X. campestris pv. campestris.

An annotated high-quality draft genome sequence for Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris race 1 strain Xca5 (originally described as X. campestris pv. armoraciae), the causal agent of black rot on Brassicaceae plants, has been determined. This genome sequence is a valuable resource for comparative genomics within the campestris pathovar.

ABSTRACT The pathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, the causal agent of black rot of Brassicaceae, manipulates the physiology and the innate immunity of its hosts. Association genetic and reverse-genetic analyses of a world panel of 45 X. campestris pv. campestris strains were used to gain understanding of the genetic basis of the bacterium's pathogenicity to Arabidopsis th...

OBJECTIVES This study used the basic principle of Oriental medicine, the sovereign, minister, assistant and courier principle () to investigate the effects of the component of ONGABO, which is composed of Ginseng Radix (Red Ginseng), Angelica Gigantis Radix, Schisandrae Fructus, Cuscuta Semen and Curcumae tuber on the viability of HepG2 cells. METHODS Single and mixed extracts of the componen...

Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, the causal agent of black rot disease, produces a suite of extracellular cell-wall degrading enzymes (CWDE) that are involved in bacterial virulence. Polygalacturonase (PG) is an important CWDE and functions to degrade the pectic layers of plant cell walls. Although previous studies have documented the virulence functions of PG in Erwinia and Ralstonia spe...
