In early 80's, a curious prokaryotic death system was described. Plasmid-encoded operons coded for toxins and antitoxins, being this latter unstable and dependent on continuous production. Cells that occasionally ended up losing these plasmids eventually died, heightening the prevalence of such extra-chromosomal DNAs in the bacterial population. Nowadays, the biotechnological use of toxin…

This disease has no cure, and spreads rapidly by water droplets, penetrating in plants through wounds and, eventually, developing the canker itself: erumpent, corky lesions, which harbor bacterial growth on their surrounding areas.
