Highly conserved sequences flank avirulence genes: isolation of novel avirulence genes from Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi
Article Abstract:
Isolation of novel avirulence genes from Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi is discussed. Highly conserved sequences were found to flank avirulence genes, meaning implications for the horizontal transfer of avirulence and virulence genes exist.

A dispensable region of the chromosome which is associated with an avirulence gene in Pseudomonas syringae pv.pisi
Article Abstract:
A study was conducted to analyze a dispensable area of the chromosome related to an avirulence gene in Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi. The plant pathogen Ppi was shown to be characterized by two phylogenetically distinct groups within the pathovar. The pathovars were determined at 25 degrees C while total bacterial DNA was obtained from an overnight broth culture using a Puregene DNA isolation kit.
