The structural diversity of xanthomonadin aryl polyenes and functional analysis of the genes required for their synthesis by Xanthomonas phytopathogens

Abstract Xanthomonas is a genus of plant-associated Gram-negative bacteria which infect more than 400 plant species. A characteristic feature of Xanthomonas bacteria is the production of yellow membrane-bound pigments called xanthomonadins. Xanthomonadins are phospholipid-like bio-macromolecules loc...
