Xanthan production by Xanthomonas albilineans infecting sugarcane stalks Blanch Rojo, María Legaz González, María Estrella Vicente Córdoba, Carlos Glucuronic acid Glycoproteins Sugarcane Xanthans Xanthomonas albilineans Fisiología vegetal (Biología) 3108 Fitopatología Xanthomonas albilineans is the causal organism of leaf scald, a bacterial vascular disease of sugarcane. Xanthomonas may invade the parenchyma between the bundles and cause reddened pockets of gum, identified as a xanthan-like polysaccharide. Since xanthan contains glucuronic acid, the ability of Xanthomonas to produce an active UDP glucose dehydrogenase is often seen as a virulence factor. X. albilineans axenically cultured did not secrete xanthans to Willbrink liquid media, but the use of inoculated sugarcane tissues for producing and characterizing xanthans has been required. A hypothesis about the role of sugarcane polysaccharides to assure the production of bacterial xanthan is discussed.
