A putative glucose-1-phosphate thymidylyltransferase is required for virulence, membrane-associated mechanisms, and tolerance to external stresses in Acidovorax citrulli

Glucose-1-phosphate thymidylyltransferase (GptT) is crucial for bacterial cell wall/membrane functions. However, its roles in Acidovorax citrulli (Ac), the causative agent of bacterial fruit blotch (BFB) in watermelon, remain poorly understood. In this study, the roles of GptT in Ac (GptTAc) were el...
