Pseudomonas is a genus of Gram-negative bacteria belonging to the family Pseudomonadaceae in the class Gammaproteobacteria. The 313 members of the genus [ 2 ][ 3 ] demonstrate a great deal of metabolic diversity and consequently are able to colonize a wide range of niches. [ 4 ]
Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common encapsulated, Gram-negative, aerobic – facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacterium that can cause disease in plants and animals, including humans. [ 1 ][ 2 ] A species of considerable medical importance, P. aeruginosa is a multidrug resistant pathogen recognized for its ubiquity ...
Pseudomonas infection refers to a disease caused by one of the species of the genus Pseudomonas. P. aeruginosa is a germ found in the environment and it is an opportunistic human pathogen most commonly infecting immunocompromised patients, such as those with cancer, diabetes, cystic fibrosis, [1] severe burns, AIDS, [2] or people who are very ...
Bacterial soft rots are caused by several types of bacteria, but most commonly by species of gram-negative bacteria, Erwinia, Pectobacterium, and Pseudomonas. It is a destructive disease of fruits, vegetables, and ornamentals found worldwide, and affects genera from nearly all the plant families. The bacteria mainly attack the fleshy storage ...
Pseudomonas oryzihabitans. Pseudomonas oryzihabitans is a nonfermenting yellow-pigmented, gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium that can cause sepsis, peritonitis, endophthalmitis, and bacteremia. [1] It is an opportunistic pathogen of humans and warm-blooded animals that is commonly found in several environmental sources, from soil to rice paddies.
Pseudomonas cichorii. Pseudomonas cichorii is a Gram-negative soil bacterium that is pathogenic to plants. It has a wide host range, and can have an important economical impact on lettuce, celery and chrysanthemum crops. [3] P. cichorii was first isolated on endives (Cichorium endivia), from which it derives its name.
Xanthomonas campestris is a gram-negative, obligate aerobic bacterium that is a member of the Xanthomonas genus, which is a group of bacteria that are commonly known for their association with plant disease. [1] This species includes Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris, the cause of black rot in brassicas (cruciferous vegetables), one of the ...
Pseudomonas syringae is a rod-shaped, Gram-negative bacterium with polar flagella. As a plant pathogen, it can infect a wide range of species, and exists as over 50 different pathovars, [2] all of which are available to researchers from international culture collections such as the NCPPB, ICMP, and others. Pseudomonas syringae is a member of ...
