Project description:28 Streptomyces strains isolated from common scab lesions of potato tubers from a wide geographic range in Norway, were selected for microarray analysis. The selected strains were subjected to species identification by microarray, 16S phylogenetic analysis and PCR; and microarray-based comparative genome analysis. To our knowledge, this is the first report of S. turgidiscabies and S. europaeiscabiei in Norway.
Project description:Bacteria isolated from potato scab lesions in Finland or northern Sweden were analyzed using microarrays, PCR, and sequencing. Data indicate wide genetic variability in pathogenicity islands among S.turgidiscabies and S.scabies strains. Thirteen Streptomyces scabies and turgidiscabies strains from two different growings, Streptomyces reticulisabiei reference strain DSM41804 and Streptomyces scabies reference strain ATCC49173 were hybridized. Data were analyzed in single channel mode.

To our knowledge, this is the first report of S. turgidiscabies and S. europaeiscabiei in Norway. 28 Norwegian Streptomyces strains were hybridized in duplicates, one S.turgidiscabies strain (St32) and one S.scabies strain (ATCC49173) were hybridized in 4 replicates. Two out of 64 hybridizations failed (replicate hybridizations of Norwegian strains 33 and 44), for a total of 62 samples. Normalization was based on log-ratios against reference strain.

Project description:Metabolomics profile of Streptomyces sp. 11-1-2, a plant pathogen isolated from common scab lesions on potato in Newfoundland, Canada. Positive and negative ionisation mode. The deposition contains RAW and mzXML.
Project description:Thaxtomin A is a phytotoxin produced by Streptomyces scabies and other Streptomyces species, the causative agents of common scab disease in potato and other taproot crops. At nanomolar concentrations, thaxtomin causes dramatic cell swelling, reduced seedling growth, and inhibition of cellulose synthesis in Arabidopsis. We identified a mutant of Arabidopsis, designated txr1, that exhibits increased resistance to thaxtomin as a result of a decrease in the rate of toxin uptake. The TXR1 gene was identified by map-based cloning and found to encode a novel, small protein with no apparent motifs or organelle-targeting signals. The protein, which has homologs in all fully sequenced eukaryotic genomes, is expressed in all tissues and during all developmental stages analyzed. Microarray transcript profiling of some 14,300 genes revealed two stomatin-like genes that were expressed differentially in the txr1 mutant and the wild type. We propose that TXR1 is a regulator of a transport mechanism
