Abstract excerpt
The pilA gene, which encodes the major structure of pili, is required for infection of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri ( X. a. pv. citri) by the filamentous bacteriophage Cf. Two open reading frames (ORFs) located downstream of pilA were cloned and characterized. One 1392-bp ORF encodes a protei...
