| 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 |
| biocontrol of the potato blackleg and soft rot diseases caused by dickeya dianthicola. | development of protection tools targeting dickeya species is an important issue in the potato production. here, we present the identification and the characterization of novel biocontrol agents. successive screenings of 10,000 bacterial isolates led us to retain 58 strains that exhibited growth inhibition properties against several dickeya sp. and/or pectobacterium sp. pathogens. most of them belonged to the pseudomonas and bacillus genera. in vitro assays revealed a fitness decrease of the test ... | 2015 | 26497457 |
| t4-related bacteriophage limestone isolates for the control of soft rot on potato caused by 'dickeya solani'. | the bacterium 'dickeya solani', an aggressive biovar 3 variant of dickeya dianthicola, causes rotting and blackleg in potato. to control this pathogen using bacteriophage therapy, we isolated and characterized two closely related and specific bacteriophages, vb_dsom_limestone1 and vb_dsom_limestone2. the limestone phages have a t4-related genome organization and share dna similarity with salmonella phage vii. microbiological and molecular characterization of the phages deemed them suitable and p ... | 2012 | 22413005 |
| genome sequence of the potato plant pathogen dickeya dianthicola strain rns04.9. | dickeya dianthicola is one of the causative agents of soft rot and blackleg diseases, which are currently identified in european countries in a wide range of crops. here, we report the draft genome sequence of d. dianthicola strain rns04.9, which was isolated from a potato plant with blackleg symptoms in 2004. | 2015 | 26044429 |
| draft genome sequences of four dickeya dianthicola and four dickeya solani strains. | dickeya dianthicola and "dickeya solani" are currently the dominant bacterial pathogens of potatoes in europe. here, we present the draft genome sequences of four strains of each pathogen. | 2013 | 23887905 |
| characterization of dickeya and pectobacterium species by capillary electrophoretic techniques and maldi-tof ms. | dickeya and pectobacterium species represent an important group of broad-host-range phytopathogens responsible for blackleg and soft rot diseases on numerous plants including many economically important plants. although these species are commonly detected using cultural, serological, and molecular methods, these methods are sometimes insufficient to classify the bacteria correctly. on that account, this study was undertaken to investigate the feasibility of three individual analytical techniques ... | 2015 | 26229029 |
| genome sequence of the emerging plant pathogen dickeya solani strain rns 08.23.3.1a. | here we present the genome sequence of dickeya solani strain rns 08.23.3.1a (pri3337), isolated from solanum tuberosum. dickeya solani, recently described on potato cultures in europe, is a proposed new taxon closely related to the dickeya dianthicola and dickeya dadantii species. | 2014 | 24482527 |
| development of a lateral flow immunoassay for rapid diagnosis of potato blackleg caused by dickeya species. | early detection of potato infections is essential for effective disease management. the aim of this study was to develop a lateral flow immunoassay (lfia) for rapid detection of a serious potato disease, potato blackleg, caused by dickeya dianthicola and dickeya solani. polyclonal antibodies specific to different strains of dickeya were obtained from rabbits after immunization with bacterial cells of d. dianthicola and d. solani. enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay testing with use of a wide range ... | 2017 | 28012109 |
