The antimicrobial activity of CS-940, a new trifluorinated quinolone drug, was tested against 761 clinical isolates. CS-940 activity against members of the family Enterobacteriaceae was most similar to that of ciprofloxacin and ofloxacin, with a large range of MICs inhibiting 90% of isolates tested (MIC90S) of 0.015 to 16 micrograms/ml (median MIC90, 0.06 micrograms/ml). CS-940 had greater acti...

abstract citrus bacterial canker disease caused by xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri is one of the most important diseases of citrus in south of iran. in this research, the samples of bacterial flora of citrus leaves were collected from various citrus growing areas of hormozgan, jiroft and mazandaran.the epiphytic bacteria were isolated from those leaves during 2000 and 2001 years. from 453 isol...

Abstract Transcription activator-like effectors (TALEs) are proteins produced by plant pathogenic Xanthomonas spp. TALEs exhibit a conserved structure and have the ability to directly bind promoter region of host target genes where they activate transcription. in oryzae pv. ( Xoo ), causal agent bacterial blight (BB) rice, play important roles triggering resistance (ETI) susceptibility (ETS) fo...

Studies on some bacterial diseases of fruit plants from Aurangabad district was carried out during 2003-2009.

The phylogenetic relationships of all validly described species of the genus Xanthomonas and the type strain of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia were analyzed by sequencing and comparing 16S ribosomal DNAs (rDNAs). The two genera exhibited a mean sequence similarity value of 96.6%, corresponding to differences at 50 nucleotide positions on average. The species of the genus Xanthomonas exhibited rel...
