Complete Genome Analysis of Pectobacterium brasiliense BS1113, a Causal Agent of Cigar Tobacco Soft Rot, with Phenotypic Characterization of Virulence and Copper Tolerance.

Abstract excerpt

Background:Pectobacterium brasiliense-mediated soft rot severely threatens the production of diverse cash crops worldwide and brings severe yield reduction risks. A virulent strain BS1113 was separated from diseased cigar tobacco plants collected in Yunnan, yet its virulence regulatory genes and copper resistance-related genetic background have not been fully analyzed so far. This study aims to decipher the...
