Abstract
Clavibacter nebraskensis is a species of bacteria in the genus Clavibacter. It causes wilt and blight in maize,Gartemann et al. "Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis: First steps in the understanding of virulence of a Gram-positive phytopathogenic bacterium", Journal of Biotechnology, Germany, 16 July 2003. Retrieved on 2011-10-26. called Goss's wilt.
Genetics
An annotated nucleotide sequence was expected to be available soon after 2011. The single chromosome is of 3.06 megabases (of which the GC-content is 73.0), mostly collinear, and contains 2 rRNA operons, and 45 tRNAs. when a partial annotation was available, it appeared to contain 50 pseudogenes and no insertion elements. A chloride channel is suspected to be a virulence factor.
