Strains of the well-studied plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae show large differences in their ability to colonize plants epiphytically and to inflict damage to hosts.Additionally, P.syringae can infect some sap-sucking insects and at least one P.syringae strain is highly virulent to insects, causing death to most individuals within as few as 4 da
