This study identifies two new non-pathogenic Xanthomonas species associated with citrus and describes a community of diverse NPX species similar to those found in rice.

The paper identifies a novel non-pathogenic Xanthomonas species, Xanthomonas imtechensis, from healthy rice seeds with bioprotection function against bacterial leaf blight.

This study isolates and characterizes Pseudomonas aeruginosa SPT08, an endophyte that inhibits bacterial wilt in tomato and promotes plant growth.

This paper describes the discovery and characterization of a novel probiotic bacterium, Luteibacter sahnii, isolated from rice seeds, highlighting its probiotic properties and potential role in plant health.

The paper corrects the misidentification of Xanthomonas sacchari as the core rice seed endophyte, identifying Xanthomonas sontii as the correct, vertically transmitted, non-pathogenic species.

The paper isolates and characterizes a new non-pathogenic Xanthomonas species, X. protegens, from rice seeds and highlights its probiotic properties and taxonomic distinctiveness.

This study investigates the genomic diversity and bio-protection function of Xanthomonas indica, a non-pathogenic rice-associated species, revealing its evolutionary insights and potential role in plant defense.

The paper investigates hyper-variation and evolution at an LPS locus in Xanthomonas species, revealing convergent evolution and horizontal gene transfer in adapting to different host tissues.

The paper reclassifies 20 bacterial pathovars previously assigned to Xanthomonas axonopodis or Xanthomonas campestris as belonging to Xanthomonas citri based on genome analysis.

This study reclassifies Xylella as a variant Xanthomonas lineage and identifies misclassified relatives through phylo-taxono-genomics and comparative analysis.

The paper reports the complete genome sequence of an XDR Stenotrophomonas maltophilia strain, revealing novel genomic features and resistance mechanisms.

The paper reports whole genome sequences of non-pathogenic Xanthomonas strains from citrus, revealing genomic diversity and potential taxonomic outliers related to pathogenic species.
