Clonality and Diversity in the Soft Rot Dickeya solani Phytopathogen

Résumé

Bacterial diversity analyses often suffer from a bias due to sampling only from a limited number of hosts or narrow geographic locations. This was the case for the phytopathogenic species Dickeya solani, whose members were mainly isolated from a few hosts–potato and ornamentals–and from the same geographical area–Europe and Israel, which are connected by seed trade. Most D. solani members were clonal with the notable exception of the potato isolate RNS05.1.2A and two related strains that are clearly distinct from other D. solani genomes. To investigate if D. solani genomic diversity might be broadened by analysis of strains isolated from other environments, we analysed new strains isolated from ornamentals and from river water as well as strain CFBP 5647 isolated from tomato in the Caribbean island Guadeloupe. While water strains were clonal to RNS05.1.2A, the Caribbean tomato strain formed a third clade. The genomes of the three clades are highly syntenic; they shared almost 3900 protein families, and clade-specific genes were mainly included in genomic islands of extrachromosomal origin. Our study thus revealed both broader D. solani diversity with the characterisation of a third clade isolated in Latin America and a very high genomic conservation between clade members.
