The phytopathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa) is the causal agent of
bacterial canker of kiwifruit. In the last years, it has caused severe economic losses to …

Bacteriophages are viruses that specifically infect target bacteria. Recently, bacteriophages
have been considered potential biological control agents for bacterial pathogens due to their …

Here, we report the genomic characterization of two siphophages, named hairong and
ZY21, that infect the kiwifruit canker phytopathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae …

Bacterial canker in kiwifruit is caused by Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae (Psa). In this
study, the bacteriophage PPPL-1 effective against Psa was characterized. Belonging to the …

Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae is a reemerging pathogen which causes bacterial
canker of kiwifruit (Actinidia sp.). Since 2008, a global outbreak of P. syringae pv. actinidiae …

Pseudomonas syringae pv. actinidiae causes bacterial canker disease in kiwifruit. Owing to
the prohibition of agricultural antibiotic use in major kiwifruit-cultivating countries, alternative …

The GenBank database contains over 2580 complete genome sequences from
bacteriophages. However, limited reports are available concerning phages can that lyse …

Background A novel virulent bacteriophage infecting phytobacteria Pseudomonas cichorii
