| elevation of three subspecies of pectobacterium carotovorum to species level: pectobacterium atrosepticum sp. nov., pectobacterium betavasculorum sp. nov. and pectobacterium wasabiae sp. nov. | a collection of 42 strains belonging to the five subspecies of pectobacterium carotovorum (subspecies atrosepticum, betavasculorum, carotovorum, odoriferum and wasabiae) and 11 reference and type strains of biovars of pectobacterium chrysanthemi, pectobacterium cacticidum and brenneria paradisiaca were studied by dna-dna hybridization, numerical taxonomy of 120 phenotypic characteristics, serology and new phylogenetic analysis of previously reported sequences from a database of aligned 16s rdna ... | 2003 | 12710602 |
| transfer of pectobacterium chrysanthemi (burkholder et al. 1953) brenner et al. 1973 and brenneria paradisiaca to the genus dickeya gen. nov. as dickeya chrysanthemi comb. nov. and dickeya paradisiaca comb. nov. and delineation of four novel species, dickeya dadantii sp. nov., dickeya dianthicola sp. nov., dickeya dieffenbachiae sp. nov. and dickeya zeae sp. nov. | a collection of 75 strains of pectobacterium chrysanthemi (including all biovars and pathovars) and the type strains of brenneria paradisiaca (cfbp 4178(t)) and pectobacterium cypripedii (cfbp 3613(t)) were studied by dna-dna hybridization, numerical taxonomy of 121 phenotypic characteristics, serology and 16s rrna gene-based phylogenetic analyses. from analysis of 16s rrna gene sequences, it was deduced that p. chrysanthemi strains and b. paradisiaca cfbp 4178(t) formed a clade distinct from th ... | 2005 | 16014461 |
| gene cloning, expression, and characterization of a novel phytase from dickeya paradisiaca. | a novel phytase gene, appa, was isolated by degenerate polymerase chain reaction (pcr) and thermal asymmetric interlaced pcr from dickeya paradisiaca. the full-length appa comprises 1278 bp and encodes 425 amino acid residues, including a 23-residue putative n-terminal signal peptide. the deduced amino acid sequence of appa reveals the conserved motifs rhgxrxp and hd, which are typical of histidine acid phosphatases; significantly, appa shows maximum identity (49%) to a phytase from klebsiella p ... | 2009 | 18679591 |
| dickeya species relatedness and clade structure determined by comparison of reca sequences. | using sequences from the reca locus, we have produced a phylogeny of 188 dickeya strains from culture collections and identified species relatedness and subspecies clade structure within the genus. of the six recognized species, dickeya paradisiaca, d. chrysanthemi and d. zeae were discriminated with long branch lengths. the clade containing the d. paradisiaca type strain included just one additional strain, isolated from banana in colombia. strains isolated from chrysanthemum and parthenium spe ... | 2009 | 19620370 |
