Comparative genomics of <i>Pseudomonas syringae</i> pathovar <i>tomato</i> reveals novel chemotaxis pathways associated with motility and plant pathogenicity
2016-09-12
Abstract excerpt
The majority of bacterial foliar plant pathogens must invade the apoplast of host plants through points of ingress, such as stomata or wounds, to replicate to high population density and cause disease. How pathogens navigate plant surfaces to locate invasion sites remains poorly understood. Many bacteria use chemical-directed regulation of flagellar rotation, a process known as chemotaxis, to move towards favorabl...
