Comparative genomics of <i>Xylella fastidiosa</i> suggests determinants of host-specificity and expands its mobile genetic elements repertoire

2021-10-17

Abstract excerpt

The Gram-negative bacterium Xylella fastidiosa colonizes plant xylem vessels and is obligately vectored by xylem sap-feeding hemipteran insects. X. fastidiosa causes diseases in many plant species but in a variety of its plant hosts this bacterium behaves as a commensal endophyte. Originally confined to the Americas, infecting mainly grapevine, citrus and coffee plants, X. fastidiosa has spread to several plant...
