Phenotypic characterization of Pseudomonas strain WRF shows it to be a member of Pseudomonas putida most closely resembling biovar A. The organism has been deposited in the American Type Culture Collection as ATCC 35546.Key words: Pseudomonas WRF characterization, Pseudomonas putida, one-carbon metabolism, siderophores, peptide-bound flavin enzymes.

Agrobacterium vitis is the causal organism of crown gall in grapevine. Infection is particularly severe in areas that experience winter damage to vines. Improving resistance to A. vitis will require a detailed knowledge about this organism. In this study, 18 grapevine isolates of A. vitis were collected from different locations near Lubbock, Texas. Isolates were subjected to a phenotypic characterization using 12 biochemical tests, including production of alkali from L-tartrate, production of 3-ketolactose, utilization of citrate, and others. Previously characterized isolates of A. vitis and A. tumefaciens obtained from the American Type Culture Collection served as positive and negative controls in these assays. Isolates were also evaluated for host range, tumor morphology, and opine utilization, and were compared at the molecular level by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of the oncogenic regions of the T-DNA plasmid. Although all isolates were able to metabolize tartrate and grow on Roy–Sasser media, there was much variability based on other tests. Twelve of 18 isolates were able to utilize octopine as a sole carbon source. All isolates tested thus far have been pathogenic on tomato and tests on grapevines are underway.

Folate and choline are water-soluble micronutrients that serve as methyl donors in the conversion of homocysteine to methionine. Inadequacy of these nutrients can disturb one-carbon metabolism as evidenced by alterations in circulating folate and/or plasma homocysteine. Among common genetic variants that reside in genes regulating folate absorptive and metabolic processes, homozygosity for the MTHFR 677C > T variant has consistently been shown to have robust effects on status markers. This paper will review the impact of genetic variants in folate-metabolizing genes on folate and choline bioefficacy. Nutrient-gene and gene-gene interactions will be considered along with the need to account for these genetic variants when updating dietary folate and choline recommendations.
