Komodo Dragon

El dragón de Komodo es el lagarto viviente más grande. Se encuentra únicamente en unas pocas islas indonesias.

Xanthomonas pisi es un patógeno vegetal gramnegativo que causa el tizón bacteriano y enfermedades de manchas foliares en guisantes y otras leguminosas. Habita el tejido foliar y los sistemas vasculares de plantas huésped susceptibles en regiones agrícolas templadas. Esta bacteria aerobia, con forma de bastón, se dispersa a través de semillas contaminadas, lluvia y transmisión mecánica.
