Identification and characterization of the Erwinia amylovora rpoS gene: RpoS is not involved in induction of fireblight disease symptoms.

Abstract excerpt

The Erwinia amylovora rpoS gene, encoding the alternative sigma factor RpoS, has been cloned and characterized. Though highly sensitive to a number of environmental stresses, an E. amylovora rpoS mutant was not compromised in its ability to grow or cause disease symptoms within apple seedlings or in an overwintering model.
