Bactericidal Compounds Controlling Growth of the Plant Pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae, Which Forms Biofilms Composed of a Novel Exopolysaccharide

Abstract: c Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae is the major cause of bacterial canker and is a severe threat to kiwifruit production worldwide. Many aspects of the disease caused by P. syringae pv. actinidiae, such as the pathogenicity-relevant formation of a biofilm composed of extracellular polymeric substances (EPSs), are still unknown. Here, a highly virulent strain of P. syringae pv. actinidiae, NZ V-13, was studied with respect to biofilm formation and architecture using a flow cell system combined with confocal … Show more

“…Polysaccharides were determined using the anthrone method33 with glucose as the standard. Uronic acids were measured using the m -hydroxydiphenyl sulfuric acid method34 with glucuronic acid as the standard. Heme was quantified in a fluorescence assay35 with bovine heart cytochrome c (95%, Aladdin Co., USA) as the standard.…”

“…The aggressive kiwi pathogen P. syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) NZ V-13 produces two novel, previously uncharacterized, polysaccharides: a branched a-D-rhamnan and an a-D-1,4-linked glucan polymer (Ghods et al, 2015). The genomes of P. syringae pathovars also encode a number of EPS loci that have been characterized in other Pseudomonas species, but whose contribution to plant infection is undefined.…”

“…Other methods to control infections are the use of oxidizing disinfectants such as ozone and chlorine dioxide, UV light treatment, chlorination and peroxide oxidation. 2,[12][13][14][15] Most chemicals, bactericides and fungicides react with organic matter and other precursors to form regulated and emerging disinfection by-products, which can be associated with cancer or other human pathologies. 14,15 The most recent method to control phytopathogenic bacteria is the use of transgenic products like cotton, tomato, soybean, potato, etc.…”
