Want to know more about the bacterial leaf streak pathogen #Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola and the role of rice seed trade in the pathogen's spread in West Africa? Using genome sequencing and satellite markers, we describe its population structure and molecular epidemiology doi.org/10.1128/aem....
Happy to announce #Effectidor II, which uses #machine_learning to predict #T3SS #effectors in #pan_genomes. Thanks a lot to Naama Wagner, Tal Pupko & all the other collaborators! We hope you will find it useful for your research.

Very happy to announce our paper @natecoevo.nature.com on the functional replacement of ancestral antibacterial secretion system ( #T4SS #T6SS ) in a bacterial plant pathogen ( #Xanthomonas ). Enjoy reading! rdcu.be/euNrM
Special thanks to @costprogramme.bsky.social !
Multilocus variable number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) of the #citrus canker pathogen, #Xanthomonas citri, suggests a shift in population structure of the pathogen over the past two decades in #Iran. apsjournals.apsnet.org/doi/10.1094/...
Amazing science at the 2nd edition of the Secretion Days in Marseille 🌞 ! Huge thanks to all participants and to @archaellum.bsky.social for an outstanding opening talk. Looking forward to the next edition!
West Africa has faced a rapid expansion of rice cultivation with importation of rice
varieties mostly from Asia, and rice now constitutes 37% of the cereal consumed in
the region. The bacterial pathog...
Nature Ecology & Evolution - The bacterial plant pathogen genus Xanthomonas uses two distinct secretion systems for antibacterial competition. Here the authors show that some Xanthomonas...
Citrus canker, caused by Xanthomonas citri pv. citri, is one of the most devastating bacterial diseases of citrus species. The global population of Xanthomonas citri pv. citri includes three lineages ...
