Query: NC_005773:4797242 Pseudomonas syringae pv. phaseolicola 1448A, complete genome
Lineage: Pseudomonas savastanoi; Pseudomonas; Pseudomonadaceae; Pseudomonadales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: This is gram-negative bacterium pathogenic in plants. Characterized as causing halo blight on beans (Phaseolus vulgaris). This bacterium is closely related to Pseudomonas syringae pv. glycinea and Pseudomonas syringae pv. savastanoi and produces phaseolotoxin, which is a phytotoxin. Strain 1448A is a natural occurring rifampicin-resistant mutant strain and contains a non-functional homolog of avrPphE.
Subject: NC_009446:174951 Dichelobacter nodosus VCS1703A, complete genome
Lineage: Dichelobacter nodosus; Dichelobacter; Cardiobacteriaceae; Cardiobacteriales; Proteobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Causative agent of ovine footrot which results in lameness and the loss of commerically important animals. The disease is caused by a mixed microbial infection of Fusobacterium necrophorum, which causes skin lesions, and Dichelobacter nodosus, which can then invade and gain access to the deeper tissue. Once aerotolerant Dichelobacter nodosus infects, which it does through the production of a number of fimbrial adhesins, it secretes both extracellular proteases and toxins which result in damage to the soft tissue underneath the horn of the hoof.
