AB Pseudomonas syringae is pathogenic in a wide variety of plants, causing diseaseswith economic impacts. Pseudomonas syringae pathovars produce several toxins that canfunction as virulence factors and contribute to disease symptoms. These virulence factorsinclude antimetabolite toxins, such as tabtoxin, phaseolotoxin and mangotoxin, whichtarget enzymes in the pathways of amino acid metabolism. The antimetabolite toxins aregenerally located in gene clusters present in the flexible genomes of specific strains. Thesegene clusters are typically present in blocks of genes that appear to be integrated intospecific sites in the P. syringae core genome. A general overview of the genetic organizationand biosynthetic and regulatory functions of these genetic traits of the antimetabolite toxinswill be given in the present work.
