Plant pathogenic <i>Ralstonia</i> phylotypes evolved divergent respiratory strategies and behaviors to thrive in xylem

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Bacterial pathogens in the Ralstonia solanacearum species complex (RSSC) infect the water-transporting xylem vessels of plants, causing bacterial wilt disease. Strains in RSSC phylotypes I and III can reduce nitrate to dinitrogen via complete denitrification. The four-step denitrification pathway enables bacteria to use inorganic nitrogen species as terminal electron acceptors, supporting their...
