Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Pseudomonas and Xanthomonas genera include a wide diversity of lifestyles such as vegetable tissue-colonizing pathogens, epiphytic opportunist pathogens, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria or non-pathogenic strains that are classified as pathogenic species. The Special Issue "Evolutionary Trajectories in Plant-Associated Pseudomonas and Xanthomonas Strains" focuses on microbial and evolutionary ecology of plant associated Pseudomonas and Xanthomonas, as well as the genomic and molecular diversity of lineages and the virulence and fitness features involved in the host–plant interaction.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Microorganisms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
