Erwinia soft rots chronically afflict many crops, and their economic toll is particularly high because disease often develops after the crop has accrued the cost of harvesting and distribution.
We are striving for high quality finished genome sequence from this experimentally tractable model system to seed downstream functional genomics initiatives beyond the scope of this proposal.
We will compare the annotated Erwinia genome to other enterobacterial sequences to identify genes unique to the phytopathogen and genes common to related plant and animal pathogens.

 ARS | Publication request: Resistance of Apple Rootstocks to Fire Blight Caused by Erwinia Amylovora
Fire blight has become a major concern of apple growers because of the widespread acceptance of high density orchards of susceptible scion varieties such as Gala, Pink Lady and Fuji on susceptible dwarfing rootstocks such as M.9 and M.26.
Vigorously growing shoots were inoculated with a composite of races of Erwinia amylovora.
Four weeks after inoculation the extent of infection (susceptibility) was recorded as the percentage of shot length infected.

Many of the current techniques now available for the genetic analysis of Erwinia and related phytopathogens were specifically developed (or applied from other systems) by this research group.

The exception to the rule is the destructive bacteria Erwinia carotovora or soft rot.
It is thought that the disease is spread by infected soil deposited in plant crowns by farm machinery, splashing water and insects.
The most effective way to control Erwinia is by using resistant seed varieties.

 Close Scrutiny Needed for GM Microorganisms
Erwinia carotovora causes a rot disease in potatoes.
The experiment is designed to test the fitness of bacteria that have had genes known to be associated with pathogenesis that have been disrupted by inserting in those genes the antibiotic resistance genes.
There is thus clear evidence that Erwinia is capable of moving resistance genes among soil Erwinia species, between other soil bacterial species and among enteric bacteria.

In this study, we attempted to identify downstream components of the SAR pathway in apple to serve as markers for its activation.
We identified three pathogenesis related (PR) genes from apple, PR-2, PR-5 and PR-8, which are induced in response to inoculation with the apple pathogen, Erwinia amylovora, but they are not induced in young apple shoots by treatment with known elicitors of SAR in herbaceous plants.

The ferredoxin-like protein gene originally isolated from sweet pepper is thought to function as a natural defense against infection due to its antimicrobial properties.
Hence it was reasoned that introduction of this gene might confer Oncidium resistant against Erwinia, the causal agent for the soft rot disease.
The transgenic plants showed enhanced resistance to Erwinia carotovora, even when the entire plant was challenged with the pathogen.
