Xanthan gum is a water-soluble polysaccharide obtained by fermentation of the genus Xanthomonas with several properties, such as low-cost, biodegradability, biocompatibility and non-toxicity. However, an important limitation xanthan gum-based biomaterials high swelling degree in solvent mechanical weakness, which results biomaterial disintegration. For this reason, aim work was to develop hydro...

ABSTRACT In 1980, over 90% of all plant-pathogenic pseudomonads and xanthomonads were lumped into Pseudomonas syringae and Xanthomonas campestris, respectively, as pathovars. The term "pathovar" was created to preserve the name of plant pathogens, but has no official standing in nomenclature. Proposals to elevate and rename several pathovars of the genera Pseudomonas and Xanthomonas to the rank...

The gammaproteobacterium Xanthomonas citri pv. citri causes Asiatic citrus canker. Pathotype A strains have a broad host range, which includes most commercial citrus species, and they cause important economic losses worldwide. Control often relies on frequent copper sprays. We present here the complete genomes of six X. citri pv. citri copper-resistant strains.
