  • Title: Conservation of Erwinia amylovora pathogenicity-relevant genes among Erwinia genomes.
    Author: Borruso L, Salomone-Stagni M, Polsinelli I, Schmitt AO, Benini S.
    Journal: Arch Microbiol; 2017 Dec; 199(10):1335-1344. PubMed ID: 28695265.
    Abstract:
    The Erwinia genus comprises species that are plant pathogens, non-pathogen, epiphytes, and opportunistic human pathogens. Within the genus, Erwinia amylovora ranks among the top 10 plant pathogenic bacteria. It causes the fire blight disease and is a global threat to commercial apple and pear production. We analyzed the presence/absence of the E. amylovora genes reported to be important for pathogenicity towards Rosaceae within various Erwinia strains genomes. This simple bottom-up approach, allowed us to correlate the analyzed genes to pathogenicity, host specificity, and make useful considerations to drive targeted studies.
