Abstract excerpt
We determined partial hrpB and endoglucanase genes sequences for 30 strains of Ralstonia solanacearum and one strain of the blood disease bacterium (BDB), a close relative of Ralstonia solanacearum. Sequence comparisons showed high levels of variability within these two regions of the genome involved in pathogenicity. Phylogenetic analysis based upon sequence comparisons of these two regions revealed three major...
