Environmental bacteriophages infecting Dickeya and Serratia species: receptors and diversity
Phytopathogenic Dickeya species inflict large economic losses on a variety of crops. A lack of effective chemical control methods has generated interest in the use of bacteriophages (phages) as a novel tool for biocontrol. In the last decade, six phages have been isolated in Belgium and Poland …

Soft rot Enterobacteriaceae-molecular detection and biocontrol under in vitro and in vivo conditions
… the losses caused by Pectobacterium and Dickeya in Europe, and a lack of effective control strategies. These indicate a need for the formulation of commercially available and effective biocontrol measures to counteract soft rot pathogens. <br/><br/>The first aim of this study was to …

ENGINEERING PHAGE HOST RANGE PROMISCUITY
… Escherichia, Klebsiella, Shigella and Dickeya. Although there has been limited analysis of Viunalikevirus receptors, the primary receptor of the defining example of this viral group (the Vi01 phage) in Salmonella Typhi has been identified as the Vi capsular polysaccharide (CPS). This …

Novel regulators of antibiotic biosynthesis in Serratia sp. ATCC 39006
… associated with virulence in phytopathogenic *Dickeya* strains, operating via a secondary quorum sensing system encoded in the *vfm* (virulence factor modulating) cluster, which uses an unknown signalling molecule. The members of this Vfm system were also found in S39006 and, by using …

Conjugative transfer and expression of an integrative and conjugative element in Pectobacterium atrosepticum : A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University
… belonging to the genera Pectobacterium and Dickeya from New Zealand and overseas. Thirty-three PCR-positive isolates for at least one HAI2-compatible bacterial attachment (attB) site were selected. Surprisingly, HAI2 was not acquired by any of the selected isolates. A screening of the genome …
