Comparison of Highly and Weakly Virulent Strains, With a View on the Pangenome and Panregulon of This Species.

Bacteria belonging to the genera and are responsible for significant economic losses in a wide variety of crops and ornamentals. During last years, increasing losses in potato production have been attributed to the appearance of . The strains investigated so far share genetic homogeneity, although different virulence levels were observed among strains of various origins.

The uniform structure of O-polysaccharides isolated from Dickeya solani strains of different origin.

O-polysaccharides were isolated from lipopolysaccharides obtained from four different strains of plant pathogenic bacteria belonging to the species Dickeya solani: two of them were isolated in Poland (IFB0099 and IFB0158), the third in Germany (IFB0223) and the last one, D. solani Type Strain IPO2222, originated from the Netherlands. In addition, the O-polysaccharide of a closely related species D.

Biodiversity of Dickeya spp. Isolated from Potato Plants and Water Sources in Temperate Climate.

Bacteria from the genera Dickeya (formerly Erwinia chrysanthemi) and Pectobacterium (formerly E. carotovora) are the agents of blackleg and soft rot on many important crops. In 2005, Dickeya solani was isolated for the first time in Poland from a symptomatic potato plant.

Regulators Involved in Dickeya solani Virulence, Genetic Conservation and Functional Variability.

Bacteria from the genus Dickeya (formerly Erwinia chrysanthemi) are plant pathogens causing severe diseases in many economically important crops. A majority of the strains responsible for potato disease in Europe belong to a newly identified Dickeya solani species. Although some ecological and epidemiological studies have been carried out, little is known about the regulation of D.
