Pectobacterium brasiliense strain:BF45 Genome sequencing and assembly
Pectobacterium carotovorum (a Gram-negative bacterium) is the etiologic agent of soft-rot of economically important crops. Disease is caused by secretion of a battery of plant cell wall degrading enzymes, and other mechanisms that involved different secretion systems. Regulation of virulence factors expression depends on quorum sensing to invade the vascular system of susceptible plant species.
