E. amylovora, P. syringae and X. campestris pv. vesicatoria are PPB, while Aeromonas sp., A. faecalis, S. enterica, Yersinia ruckeri and K. pneumoniae are human, animal, pathogenic or environmental bacteria. ND, not determined; NA, not available. Note that Tn5393k was described twice but the two versions were not identical and are distinguished here as Tn5393k and Tn5393k’. The genetic organization of these Tn5393 variants is illustrated in Figure 2.
