AB Genome sequencing and annotation have revealed a putative cellulose biosynthetic operon in the strain Pseudomonassyringae pv. syringae UMAF0158, the causal agent of bacterial apical necrosis. Bioinformatics analyses and experimentalmethods were used to confirm the functionality of the cellulose biosynthetic operon. In addition, the results showed thecontribution of the cellulose operon to important aspects of P. syringae pv. syringae biology, such as the formation of biofilmsand adhesion to the leaf surface of mango, suggesting that this operon increases epiphytic fitness. However, based on theincidence and severity of the symptoms observed in tomato leaflets, cellulose expression reduces virulence, ascellulose-deficient mutants increased the area of necrosis, whereas the cellulose-overproducing strain decreased the areaof necrosis compared with the wild type. In conclusion, the results of this study show that the epiphytic and pathogenicstages of the P. syringae pv. syringae UMAF0158 lifestyle are intimately affected by cellulose production.
