The genomes represent both completely sequenced organisms and those for which sequencing is in_progress. All three main domains of life-bacteria archaea, and eukaryota-are_represented, as_well_as many viruses and organelles Recently completed genome: Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri and Xantomonas campestri strain ATCC33913. Publication Date: May 23,2002 Reference: Da Silva, A_c. R. et_al. Comparison of the genomes of two Xanthomonas pathogens with differing host specificities. Nature 417: 459-463,2002 Xantomonas axonopodis Genome Size: 5, 175,554 bp Xantomonas campestri Genome Size: 5, 076,187 bp Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri strain 306, a Gram-negative aerobic rod, is an important plant pathogen and causes citrus canker. This disease affects most commercial citrus cultivars, resulting in significant losses worldwide. Symptoms of this disease include canker lesions leading to abscission of fruit and leaves and general tree decline. The genome sequencing of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri has_been_completed and DNA sequences have_been_deposited to Genbank/EMBL/DDBJ under the accession number AE008923 (circular chromosome) and two plasmids: AE008924 (pxac33) and AE008925 (pxac64. Xanthomonas_campestris pv. campestris strain ATCC33913 is a Gram-negative aerobic rod. This organism is an important plant pathogen and causes black rot, a disease affecting crucifers such_as Brassica and Arabidopsis. The disease symptoms are_characterized by marginal leaf chlorosis and darkening of vascular_tissue, accompanied by extensive wilting and necrosis2. Xanthomonas_campestris pv. campestris is_used commercially to produce the exopolysaccharide xanthan gum, used as a viscosifying and stabilizing agent in many industries. The genome sequencing of Xanthomonas_campestris pv. campestris strain ATCC33913 has_been_completed and DNA sequences have_been_deposited to Genbank/EMBL/DDBJ under the accession number AE008922 (circular chromosome). Recently completed genome: Methanosarcina mazei strain Goe1 Publication Date: July, 2002 Reference: Deppenmeier, U. et_al. The Genome of Methanosarcina mazei: Evidence for lateral gene transfer between Bacteria and Archaea. Mol. Microbiol. and Biotechnol. In press, 2002 Size: 4, 096,345 nt Methanosarcina mazei is an obligate anaerobic Archaea which is an integral part_of anaerobic food_chains. This and related species are of great ecological importance as they are the only organisms fermenting acetate, methylamines and methanol to methane, carbon_dioxide and ammonia (in_case of methylamines). Since acetate is the precursor of 60%of the methane produced on_earth these organisms contribute significantly to the production of this greenhouse gas, e_g. in rice_paddies. The genome sequencing of Methanosarcina mazei strain Goe1 has_been_completed and DNA sequences have_been_deposited to Genbank/EMBL/DDBJ under the accession number AL139299 (circular chromosome).
