The oligopeptide-binding protein, OppA, ushers oligopeptide substrates to the membrane-associated oligopeptide permease (Opp), a multi-component ABC-type transporter involved in the uptake of oligopeptides by several bacterial species. In the present study, we report a structural model and an oligopeptide docking analysis of the OppA protein expressed by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (X. cit...

In Xanthomonas citri, the bacterium that causes citrus canker, three ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are known to be dedicated to the uptake of sulfur compounds. In this work, using functional, biophysical and structural methods, we showed that NrtT, a periplasmic component of the ABC transporter NrtCB, is an alkanesulfonate-binding protein and that the deletion of the nrtT gene affecte...

The cultivation of tomatoes in greenhouse structures is becoming increasingly common as a crop production system. However, the environmental conditions inside favour development microbial diseases. These diseases have an adverse effect on tomato yield and can lead to serious economic losses. This review will give insight into major affecting greenhouse-grown tomatoes, respective causal agents r...

The tomato plant is one of the most widely produced vegetables in world. However, there are several disease factors which limit production. Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. (Cmm) pathogen causes wilting and canker symptoms on leaves plants bird’s eye then completely die. Development resistant varieties prerequisite due to absence an effective control methods against bacterial disease. M3-9 M3-1...

Research of the biocide action streptomycete-antagonist metabolites on causative agent bacterial canker tomato and host-plant fertility is actual question. Aim. To determine Streptomyces globisporus 3-1 cyanogenus S136 phytopathogen Clavibacter michiganensis 102 in vitro seed germination, growth yield tomatoes vivo. Methods. Microbiological methods laboratory conditions descriptive-comparative ...
