Is the gpsX gene encoding a glycosyltransferase important for polysaccharide production and required for full virulence in Xanthomonas citri subsp . citri?
Taken together, our data confirm that the gpsX gene is involved in EPS and LPS synthesis and biofilm formation in Xac and suggest that the gpsX gene contributes to the adaptation of Xac to the host microenvironments at early stage of infection and thus is required for full virulence on host plants.
SEM can be used to model CKD and could be useful to examine biomarkers in CKD patients.
