XANTHOMONAS DYEI
| Class: | Gamma Proteobacteria |
| Genus: | Xanthomonas |
| Species: | Xanthomonas dyei |
| Description: | Species named in honour of D. W. Dye (1921–2005), New Zealand bacterial plant pathologist and systematist, whose studies of the genus Xanthomonas (Dye, 1962) paved the way for the pathovar synthesis.Short rods 1·7 μm × 0·7 μm, with monotrichous polar flagella insertion. Obligate aerobe. Does not grow in 0·2% triphenyl tetrazolium chloride. Produces the polysaccharide polymer xanthan from glucose as precursor. |
