Pathogenicity, phylogenomic, and comparative genomic study of <i>Pseudomonas syringae</i> sensu lato affecting sweet cherry in California.

ABSTRACT: To gain insights into the diversity of Pseudomonas syringae sensu lato affecting sweet cherry in California, we sequenced and analyzed the phylogenomic and genomic architecture of 86 fluorescent pseudomonads isolated from symptomatic and asymptomatic cherry tissues. Fifty-eight isolates were phylogenetically placed within the P. syringae species complex and taxonomically classified into five genomospecies: P. syringae pv. syringae, P. syringae, Pseudomonas cerasi, Pseudomonas viridiflava, and A. We annotated components of the type III secretion system and phytotoxin-encoding genes and correlated the data with pathogenicity phenotypes. Intact probable regulatory protein HrpR was annotated in the genomic sequences of all isolates of
