Utilization of Filamentous Phage ϕRSM3 to Control Bacterial Wilt Caused by Ralstonia solanacearum
(Plant Disease / Vol. 96 No. 8 / August 2012, 2012-08-01)
The wide host range of Ralstonia solanacearum, causal agent of bacterial wilt, and its ability to survive for long periods in the environment restrict the effectiveness of cultural and chemical control measures. The use ...
The Filamentous Phage ϕRSS1 Enhances Virulence of Phytopathogenic Ralstonia solanacearum on Tomato
(Phytopathology (American Phytopathological Society), Vol. 102, No. 3, 2012, 2012-03-01)
Ralstonia solanacearum is the causative agent of bacterial wilt in many important crops. ϕRSS1 is a filamentous phage that infects R. solanacearum strains. Upon infection, it alters the physiological state and the behavior ...
Loss of Virulence of the Phytopathogen Ralstonia solanacearum Through Infection by ϕRSM Filamentous Phages
(Phytopathology: An International Journal of The American Phytopathological Society, Vol. 102. No. 5, May 2012, 2012-05-01)
φRSM1 and φRSM3 (φRSM phages) are filamentous phages (inoviruses) that infect Ralstonia solanacearum, the causative agent of bacterial wilt. Infection by φRSM phages causes several cultural and physiological changes to ...
