Citrus canker type A is a serious disease caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (X. citri), which is responsible for severe losses to growers and to the citrus industry worldwide. To date, no canker-resistant citrus genotypes are available, and there is limited information regarding the molecular and genetic mechanisms involved in the early stages of the citrus canker development. Here…

Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc) is the causal agent of citrus canker, a disease that affects almost all types of citrus crops. Production of particular pathogenicity factors in Xcc is regulated by rpf gene cluster, which encodes elements of a cell-cell communication system called Quorum Sensing (QS). The QS in Xcc is mediated by a diffusible signal factor (DSF). Recently we have show…
Brazil is the largest producer of orange and frozen concentrated orange juice in the world and São Paulo State is responsible for 80% of the orange and 98% of the juice produced in the country. One major problem of the citriculture worldwide is the diseases that attack the orchards and causes great economic losses. Citrus canker, is caused by the Gram-negative bacteria Xanthomonas citri s…
The citrus canker, caused by the bacterium Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xac), is a serious disease that is adversely affecting citrus groves worldwide. The major goal of citrus breeding programs is to develop commercial citrus varieties with resistance to citrus canker. However, this strategy has not produced results so far, because the genus Citrus presents limitations for improvement…

Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc) is the causal agent of citrus canker, a disease that affects almost all types of citrus crops. Production of particular pathogenicity factors in Xcc is coordinated by rpf gene cluster, which encodes elements of a cell-cell communication system called Quorum Sensing (QS). QS in Xcc is mediated by DSF (Diffusible Signal Factor), synthesis and perception …
