rpfF is not required for X. translucens pv. undulosa pathogenesis

Nathaniel Heiden, Jules Butchacas, Taylor Klass, Stephen P. Cohen, Verónica Román-Reyna, Marcus Vinícius Merfa, Guillermo E. Valero David, Christian Vargas-Garcia, Cristian Olmos, Yesenia Vélez-Negrón, Monica M. Lewandowski, Jonathan M. Jacobs

This study shows that rpfF is not essential for X. translucens pv. undulosa pathogenesis, suggesting quorum sensing interference is not a viable strategy for preventing bacterial leaf streak.
