Analyses of Virulence Genes of <i>Clavibacter michiganensis</i> subsp. <i>michiganensis</i> Strains Reveal Heterogeneity and Deletions That Correlate with Pathogenicity

<i>Clavibacter michiganensis</i> subsp. <i>michiganensis</i> (<i>Cmm</i>) is the causal agent of bacterial canker of tomato. Differences in virulence between <i>Cmm</i> strains have been reported. The aim of this study was the characterization of nine...
