Evaluation of Xanthomonas campestris survival in a soil microcosm system

Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris is a pathogen of cruciferous plants. We studied the survival of the wild type strain and mutant derivatives which are deficient in exopolysaccharide (EPS) or in extracellular protease synthesis in soil microcosms in order to test the hypothesis that, in this env...
