Bacterial blight of onion is an emerging disease threatening world onion production. The causal agent Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. allii is seed transmitted and a reliable and sensitive tool is needed to monitor seed exchanges. A triplex quantitative real-time PCR assay was developed targeting two X.

Understanding the evolutionary history and potential of bacterial pathogens is critical to prevent the emergence of new infectious bacterial diseases. Xanthomonas axonopodis subsp. citri (Xac) (synonym X. citri subsp. citri), which causes citrus canker, is one of the hardest-fought plant bacterial p

Single-chamber microbial fuel cells (MFCs) acclimated with glucose, butyrate, propionate, acetate, and a mixture of the four were operated with brewery wastewater (BWW) under a fed-batch mode. Glucose-fed MFC (GW-MFC) showed the highest maximum power density (PDmax) of 1,519 mW/m(2), followed in or
