Using the Bacterial Plant Pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato as a Model to Study the Evolution and Mechanisms of Host Range and Virulence
Most plant pathogens are specialists where only few plant species are susceptible, while all other plants are resistant. Unraveling the mechanisms behind this can thus provide valuable information for breeding or engineering crops with durable disease resistance. A group of Pseudomonas syringae stra...
