(I. T. Riley and K. M. Ophel, Int. J. Syst. Bacteriol. 42:64-68, 1992). The properties of members of the genus Ruthuyibacter include coryneform morphology, peptidoglycan based on 2,4-diaminobutyric acid (type B2y), predominant menaquinones of the MK-10 type, and phosphatidylglycerol and diphosphatidylglycerol as basic polar lipids. The DNA base compositions range from 63 to 72 mol% G+C. The members of the new genus form a phenetic cluster distinct from Clavibucter spp. at a level

Colonization Studies of Clavibacter Michiganensis in Fruit and Xylem of Diverse Solanum Species
Colonization studies of Clavibacter michiganensis in fruit and xylem of diverse Solanum species A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Franklin Christopher Peritore May 2020 © 2020 Franklin Christopher Peritore Colonization studies of Clavibacter michiganensis in fruit and xylem of diverse Solanum species Franklin Christopher Peritore, Ph. D. Cornell University 2020 Bacterial canker of tomato is an economically devastating disease with a worldwide distribution caused by the gram-positive pathogen Clavibacter michiganensis. The seedborne pathogen systemically colonizes the tomato xylem, causing unilateral leaflet wilt, stem and petiole cankers, marginal leaf necrosis, and plant death. Splash dispersal of the bacterium onto fruit exteriors causes bird’s-eye lesions, which are characterized as necrotic centers surrounded by white halos. The pathogen can colonize developing seeds systemically through the xylem and through penetration of fruit tissues from the exterior. There are no commercially available resistant tomato cultivars, and copper-based bactericides have limited efficacy for controlling the disease once the pathogen is in the xylem. This dissertation describes differences in pathogen colonization of xylem and fruit between tolerant and susceptible Solanum species, demonstrating that C. michiganensis is impeded in systemic and intravascular spread in the xylem, and is capable of causing bird’s-eye lesions on wild tomato fruit. The size at which S. lycopersicum fruit inoculated with C. michiganensis and two additional bacterial pathogens begins developing lesions, peaks in susceptibility, and ceases developing lesions was determined in wildtype and ethylene-responsive mutants. Changes in chemical composition of xylem sap from susceptible S.

ABSTRACT Rathayibacter toxicus, a Select Agent in the United States, is one of six recognized species in the genus Rathayibacter and the best known due to its association with annual ryegrass toxicity, which occurs only in parts of Australia. The Rathayibacter species are unusual among phytopathogenic bacteria in that they are transmitted by anguinid seed gall nematodes and produce extracellular polysaccharides in infected plants resulting in bacteriosis diseases with common names such as yellow slime and bacterial head blight. R. toxicus is distinguished from the other species by producing corynetoxins in infected plants; toxin production is associated with infection by a bacteriophage. These toxins cause grazing animals feeding on infected plants to develop convulsions and abnormal gate, which is referred to as “staggers,” and often results in death of affected animals. R. toxicus is the only recognized Rathayibacter species to produce toxin, although reports of livestock deaths in the United States suggest a closely related toxigenic species may be present.

Rathayibacter Agropyri (Non O’Gara, 1916) Comb
TAXONOMIC DESCRIPTION Schroeder et al., Int J Syst Evol Microbiol DOI 10.1099/ijsem.0.002708 Rathayibacter agropyri (non O’Gara, 1916) comb. nov., nom. rev., isolated from western wheatgrass (Pascopyrum smithii) Brenda K. Schroeder,1 William L. Schneider,2 Douglas G. Luster,2 Aaron Sechler2 and Timothy D. Murray3,* Abstract Aplanobacter agropyri was first described in 1915 by O’Gara and later transferred to the genus Corynebacterium by Burkholder in 1948 but it was not included in the Approved Lists of Bacterial Names in 1980 and, consequently, is not recognized as a validly published species. In the 1980s, bacteria resembling Corynebacterium agropyri were isolated from plant samples stored at the Washington State Mycological Herbarium and from a diseased wheatgrass plant collected in Cardwell, Montana, USA. In the framework of this study, eight additional isolates were recovered from the same herbarium plant samples in 2011. The isolates are slow-growing, yellow-pigmented, Gram-stain-positive and coryneform. The peptidoglycan is type B2g containing diaminobutyric acid, alanine, glycine and glutamic acid, the cell-wall sugars are rhamnose and mannose, the major respiratory quinone is MK-10, and the major fatty acids are anteiso-15 : 0, anteiso 17 : 0 and iso-16 : 0, all of which are typical of the genus Rathayibacter. Phylogenetic analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences placed the strains in the genus Rathayibacter and distinguished them from the six other described species of Rathayibacter. DNA– DNA hybridization confirmed that the strains were members of a novel species. Based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic characterization, it appears that strains CA-1 to CA-12 represent a novel species, and the name Rathayibacter agropyri (non O’Gara, 1916) comb.

The PM10 samples, collected at a Central Mediterranean coastal site, were analyzed by the 16S rRNA gene metabarcoding approach, and Spearman correlation coefficients and redundancy discriminant analysis tri-plots were used to investigate the main relationships.

Skryabin Institute of Biochemistry and Physiology of Microorganisms, RAS, Pushchino, Moscow Region 142290, Russia The Subcommittee on the Taxonomy of the Suborder Micrococcineae of the International Committee on Systematics of Prokaryotes has agreed on minimal standards for describing new genera and species of the suborder Micrococcineae. The minimal standards are intended to provide bacteriologists involved in the taxonomy of members of the suborder Micrococcineae with a set of essential requirements for the description of new taxa. In addition to sequence data comparisons of 16S rRNA genes or other appropriate conservative genes, phenotypic and genotypic criteria are compiled which are considered essential for the comprehensive characterization of new members of the suborder Micrococcineae. Additional features are recommended for the characterization and differentiation of genera and species with validly published names.
