Mangotoxin production of Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae is regulated by MgoA
21 Feb 2014
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The antimetabolite mangotoxin is a key factor in virulence of Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae strains which cause apical necrosis of mango trees. Previous studies showed that mangotoxin biosynthesis is governed by the mbo operon. Random mutagenesis led to the identification of two other gene clusters that affect mangotoxin biosynthesis. These are the gacS/gacA genes and mgo operon which harbors the...
