Studies on some bacterial diseases of fruit plants from Aurangabad district was carried out during 2003-2009. They are: Leaf necrosis of Custard apple caused by Xanthomonas annonae; Citrus canker caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. citri; Bacterial canker of Mango caused by Xanthomonas campestris pv. mangiferaeindicae; Leaf necrosis of Guava caused by Xanthomonas psidae; and leaf spot of Badam...

The random amplified polymorphic DNA method was used to distinguish strains of Xanthomonas campestris pv. pelargonii from 21 other Xanthomonas species and/or pathovars. Among the 42 arbitrarily chosen primers evaluated, 3 were found to reveal diagnostic polymorphisms when purified DNAs from compared strains were amplified by the PCR. The three primers revealed DNA amplification patterns which w...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Isolation of Xanthomonas campestris from soil has a wide range of applications from monitoring of phytopathogenic populations in soil to screening of improved xanthan-producing strains. Identification of Xanthomonas campestris and its pathovars requires pathogenicity tests in addition to phenotypic and molecular characterization. MATERIALS AND METHODS Thirty phenotyp...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The genus Xanthomonas is composed of phytopathogenic bacterial species. In addition to causing crops diseases, most of the Xanthomonas species especially Xanthomonas campestris produce xanthan gum via an aerobic fermentation process. Xanthan gum is, an important exopolysaccharide from Xanthomonas campestris, mainly used in the food, petroleum and other industries. the p...

The secondary metabolites such as essential oil and pure compounds (limonin and imperatorin) from Poncirus trifoliata Rafin were tested for in vitro control of phytopathogenic bacteria of Xanthomonas spp. In vitro studies showed that the oil had inhibitory effect on Xanthomonas campestris pv. compestris KC94-17-XCC, Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria YK93-4-XCV, Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryza...

The gram-negative plant-pathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria is the causative agent of bacterial spot disease in pepper and tomato plants, which leads to economically important yield losses. This pathosystem has become a well-established model for studying bacterial infection strategies. Here, we present the whole-genome sequence of the pepper-pathogenic Xanthomonas campe...

Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris is the causal agent of black rot on Brassicaceae. The draft genome sequences of three strains (CN14, CN15, and CN16) that are highly aggressive on Arabidopsis have been determined. These genome sequences present an unexpected genomic diversity in X. campestris pv. campestris, which will be valuable for comparative analyses.

Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Xanthomonas campestris LMG 8031, for which nearly no genetic information is available, despite its good xanthan-producing properties. We performed an Illumina-based sequencing approach of LMG 8031. The genome revealed a 5.0-Mb chromosome having 4,434 coding sequences and a G+C content of 65%.
