Wild Fire Token

Tabtoxin, also known as wildfire toxin, is a simple monobactam phytotoxin produced by Pseudomonas syringae. It is the precursor to the antibiotic tabtoxinine β-lactam (TBL). It is produced by:Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci, the causal agent of the wildfire of tobacco P. syringae pv. coronafaciens P. syringae pv. garcae P. syringae BR2, which causes a disease of bean similar to tobacco wildfire. This organism is closely related to P. syringae pv. tabaci but cannot be classified in the pathovar tabaci because it is not pathogenic on tobacco.
