Association Between Loss of Type IV Pilus Synthesis Ability and Phenotypic Variation in the Cucurbit Pathogenic Bacterium Acidovorax citrulli
{{output}}
Acidovorax citrulli is the causal agent of bacterial fruit blotch of cucurbits. We have shown that functional type IV pili (T4P) are required for full virulence of this bacterium. To identify A. citrulli genes required for T4P activity, we screened a library o... ...
