Comparative Genomics of Erwinia amylovora and Related Erwinia Species—What do We Learn?
Erwinia amylovora, the causal agent of fire blight disease of apples and pears, is one of the most important plant bacterial pathogens with worldwide economic significance. Recent reports on the complete or draft genome sequences of four species in the genus Erwinia, including E. amylovora, E. pyrifoliae, E. tasmaniensis, and E. billingiae, have provided us near complete genetic information abo...
متن کاملBacteriophages of Erwinia amylovora.
Fifty bacteriophage isolates of Erwinia amylovora, the causal agent of fire blight, were collected from sites in and around the Niagara region of southern Ontario and the Royal Botanical Gardens, Hamilton, Ontario. Forty-two phages survived the isolation, purification, and storage processes. The majority of the phages in the collection were isolated from the soil surrounding trees exhibiting fi...
متن کاملPhenotypic diversity of Erwinia amylovora in Bulgaria.
Fifty-one strains of Erwinia amylovora isolated from nine host plants in Bulgaria were characterized phenotypically and identified by the API 20E and BIOLOG system. The identification was confirmed by PCR amplification of a specific region of the plasmid pEA29 and the genome ams region. The phenotypic diversity of the strains was studied on the basis of their API 20E and BIOLOG metabolic profil...
متن کاملErwinia amylovora: General Characteristics, Biochemistry and Serology
Many general characteristics of a bacterium can be assumed by its name. Nomenclatures are based on studies that provide clear and reliable placement of bacteria into groups. In this chapter, we shall present the description of the species Erwinia amylovora as given by the taxonomists. Such a description is necessarily general, gathering the common traits of individuals of the species. It provid...
متن کاملIntermediary metabolism of carbohydrate by Erwinia amylovora.
Erwinia amylovora ferments glucose to yield mainly ethanol, lactate, and carbon dioxide (Sutton and Starr, 1959). The initial steps in the o.xidation of glucose by this bacterium were reported by Katznelson (1955), who later (Katznelson, 1958) showed the presence of certain key enzymes of the Embden-Meyerhof pathway in sonic extracts. The present study, briefly summarized elsewhere (Sutton and ...
