Twenty isolates of Xanthomonas campestris pv. oryzae (Ishiyama) Dye each from susceptible and resistant rice cultivars, were inoculated on the susceptible genotype IR-8 and resistant M Sungsong to measure the impact of host selection pressure on virulence change. Isolates virulent on resistant genotype tended to be less adaptive on susceptible cultivars. While isolates from susceptible genotype showed 2.2 times more general virulence (GV) than specific virulence (SV), isolates of resistant host origin had only 1.3 times GV, indicating that the resistant host plant displays considerable increase in virulence. The SV value increased 1.64 times after one cropping with resistants indicated the potential of the pathogen to change to be slow. 相似文献

Fully sequenced genomes of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) strains are reported. However, intra‐pathovar differences are still intriguing and far from clear. In this work, the contrasting virulence between two isolates of Xcc ‐ Xcc51 (more virulent) and XccY21 (less virulent) is evaluated by determining their pan proteome profiles. The bacteria are grown in NYG and XVM1 (optimal for induction of hrp regulon) broths and collected at the max‐exponential growth phase. Shotgun proteomics reveals a total of 329 proteins when Xcc isolates are grown in XVM1. A comparison of both profiles reveals 47 proteins with significant abundance fluctuations, out of which, 39 show an increased abundance in Xcc51 and are mainly involved in virulence/adaptation mechanisms, genetic information processing, and membrane receptor/iron transport systems, such as BfeA, BtuB, Cap, Clp, Dcp, FyuA, GroEs, HpaG, Tig, and OmpP6. Several differential proteins are further analyzed by qRT‐PCR, which reveals a similar expression pattern to the protein abundance. The data shed light on the complex Xcc pathogenicity mechanisms and point out a set of proteins related to the higher virulence of Xcc51. This information is essential for the development of more efficient strategies aiming at the control of black rot disease. 相似文献

Citrus is an economically important fruit crop that is severely afflicted by citrus canker, a disease caused by Xanthomonas citri ssp. citri (X. citri); thus, new sustainable strategies to manage this disease are needed. Although all Citrus spp. are susceptible to this pathogen, they are resistant to other Xanthomonas species, exhibiting non-host resistance (NHR), for example, to the brassica pathogen X. campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) and a gene-for-gene host defence response (HDR) to the canker-causing X. fuscans ssp. aurantifolii (Xfa) strain C. Here, we examine the plant factors associated with the NHR of C. limon to Xcc. We show that Xcc induced asymptomatic type I NHR, allowing the bacterium to survive in a stationary phase in the non-host tissue. In C. limon, this NHR shared some similarities with HDR; both defence responses interfered with biofilm formation, and were associated with callose deposition, induction of the salicylic acid (SA) signalling pathway and the repression of abscisic acid (ABA) signalling. However, greater stomatal closure was seen during NHR than during HDR, together with different patterns of accumulation of reactive oxygen species and phenolic compounds and the expression of secondary metabolites. Overall, these differences, independent of Xcc type III effector proteins, could contribute to the higher protection elicited against canker development. We propose that Xcc may have the potential to steadily activate inducible defence responses. An understanding of these plant responses (and their triggers) may allow the development of a sustained and sustainable resistance to citrus canker. 相似文献

Apigmented bacterial colonies were obtained in Reunion Island from angular leaf lesions on Pepper tree (Schinus terebenthifolius Radii), a member of Anacardiaceae. All isolates were identified as Xanthomonas campestris, using physiological and biochemical tests. These strains were reinoculated to Pepper tree leaves, and Koch postulates were verified. Furthermore, they were inoculated to mango leaves and produced lesions identical to those induced by Xanthomonas campestris pv. mangiferaeindicae, the causal agent of bacterial black spot of mangoes. Apigmented and pigmented strains of X. c. pv. mangiferaeindicae from Mango and Ambarella were pathogenic to Pepper tree. Strains isolated from Pepper tree were compared to X. c. pv. mangiferaeindicae, by means of phenotypic features (utilization of 147 carbon sources) and using a serological assay. A high homology among the strains was observed. Thus, It is concluded that strains isolated from Pepper tree belong to pv. mangiferaeindicae, and that Pepper tree is a host species for X. c. pv. mangiferaeindicae. 相似文献

Abstract: It has been reported that all tested naturally occurring strains of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris that are known to be capable of inducing blight symptoms in cabbage react with MAb A11 and hybridize with a 5.4-kb DNA fragment (in plasmid pJC41), cloned from the Xanthomonas campestris species type strain, Xcc528T , whereas all tested naturally occurring strains that do not cause blight react with MAb X21 and do not hybridize to pJC41. The roles of the 5.4-kb DNA in pJC41 and the epitope recognized by MAb A11 in the pathogenicity of X. c. campestris strains that cause blight were examined by mutational analyses. A 4.0-kb deletion of the pJC41 region on the Xcc528T chromosome was created by marker exchange, but the derivatives were evidently not affected in their ability to elicit blight symptoms. Nitrosoguanidine was used to mutagenize two blight strains, Xcc528T and CAM19, and mutants were selected that were not reactive to MAb A11. The MAb A11-negative mutant of Xcc528T was reactive to MAb X21, but was evidently not affected in the ability to elicit blight symptoms. MAb A11-negative mutants of CAM19, however, were not reactive to MAb X21, and showed reduction or loss of virulence, which suggested the requirement for at least one of the two antigens (to MAbs A11 or X21) for pathogenicity. A genomic library of CAM19 was made and screened for genes responsible for the production of the A11 antigen. Cosmid clones were identified that restored MAb A11 reactivity to the mutants. None of these cosmids restored the virulence of the mutant strains that had lost virulence. Therefore, neither the blight-associated 5.4-kb DNA fragment nor the MAb A11 antibody marker were required for blight symptom elicitation or pathogenicity. 相似文献

Bacterial proliferation in hosts requires activation of a number of housekeeping pathways, including purine de novo biosynthesis. Although inactivation of purine biosynthesis genes can attenuate virulence, it is unclear which biochemical or virulence factors are associated with the purine biosynthesis pathway in vivo. We report that inactivation of purC, a gene encoding phosphoribosylaminoimidazole-succinocarboxamide synthase, caused complete loss of virulence in Xanthomonas campestris pv. cam- pestris, the causal agent of black rot disease of cruciferous plants. The purC mutant was a purine auxotroph; it could not grow on minimal medium, whereas addition of purine derivatives, such as hypoxanthine or adenine plus guanine, restored growth of the mutant. The purC mutation also significantly enhanced the production of an unknown purine synthesis associated pigment and extracellular polysaccharides by the bacterium. In addition, comparative proteomic analyses of bacteria grown on rich and minimal media revealed that the purC mutation affected the expression levels of diverse proteins involved in purine and pyrimidine synthesis, carbon and energy metabolisms, iron uptake, proteolysis, protein secretion, and signal transduction. These results provided clues to understanding the contributions of purine synthesis to bacterial virulence and interactions with host immune systems. 相似文献

Foliar-applied exopolysaccharides, obtained from bacterial cells of either Xanthomonas campestris pv. manihotis (EPS-Xcm) or Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (EPS-Xcc), isolate NRRL B-1459, were tested for their ability to induce local and systemic protection against coffee leaf rust caused by Hemileia vastatrix. Both preparations of EPS were effective in inducing local and systemic protection when applied 72 h before challenge with the pathogen. Protection was also observed when plants were treated with different concentrations of a commercially available preparation of xanthan gum (CXG).
Systemic protection was induced by EPS-Xcm, EPS-Xcc and CXG even after the removal of the treated leaves immediately before the challenge. Local protection lasted at least 5 weeks, when EPS-Xcm was applied at the concentration of 100 μg equivalents of glucose/ml. Fluorescent microscopic studies of pathogen development in protected and control leaves indicated that neither the germination, appressoria formation nor the number of infection sites were affected by treatment with EPS-Xcm. 相似文献

A talA gene encoded transaldolase, a rate-limiting enzyme in the non-oxidative branch of the pentose-phosphate pathway, was cloned from Xanthomonas campestris pv. phaseoli. talA located in a region of the bacterial genome rich in genes involved in oxidative stress protection and regulation. TalA from X. campestris pv. phaseoli showed a high degree of homology to many previously reported transaldolases from both prokaryotic and eukaryotic sources. The expression of X. campestris pv. phaseoli talA was high at log-phase of growth, then declined at stationary phase, and could not be induced by oxidants. A talA mutant constructed by insertional inactivation did not possess any detectable transaldolase activity. Lack of a functional talA gene did not affect bacterial growth in a rich medium containing glucose or sucrose as a carbon source. However, the talA knockout mutant showed increased sensitivity to the superoxide generator menadione, but not to other oxidants. This increased menadione sensitivity phenotype could be complemented by expression of talA in a plasmid vector. The data demonstrated a novel and essential role of transaldolase in protection against menadione toxicity in X. campestris. 相似文献

We have isolated and characterized a lytic double-stranded DNA Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris bacteriophage (XTP1) capable of mediating generalized transduction. The phage transduces chromosomal markers at frequencies of 10(-5) to 10(-6) transductants per PFU. We demonstrated its genetic utility by the isolation and cotransduction of linked transposon insertions to a nonselectable locus, xgl, required for the cleavage of 5-bromo-3-chloro-indoyl-beta-D-galactoside and showed that rif and str alleles in X. campestris are 75% linked. One-step growth experiments showed that the latent and rise periods were each 2 h and the average burst size was 35. The DNA genome is approximately 180 kb, presumably modified in a sequence-specific manner, and may be covalently attached to protein(s). Electron micrographs show the phage particle to have an icosahedral head and contractile tail with tail fibers uniquely attached to a location 40 nm proximal from the end of the tail. 相似文献

Macrophage infectivity potentiators (Mips) are FKBP domain-containing proteins reported as virulence factors in several human pathogens, such as members of genera Legionella, Salmonella and Chlamydia. The putative peptidylprolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase) encoded by XC2699 of the plant bacterial pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris 8004 exhibits a 49% similarity at the amino-acid level to the Mip protein of Legionella pneumophila. This mip-like gene, XC2699, was overexpressed in Escherichia coli and the purified (His)6-tagged Mip-like protein encoded by XC2699 exhibited a PPIase activity specifically inhibited by FK-506. A mutation in the mip-like gene XC2699 led to significant reductions in virulence and replication capacity in the host plant Chinese radish (Raphanus sativus L. var. radiculus Pers.). Furthermore, the production of exopolysaccharide and the activity of extracellular proteases, virulence factors of X. campestris pv. campestris, were significantly decreased in the mip-like mutant. These results reveal that the mip-like gene is involved in the pathogenesis of X. campestris pv. campestris through an effect on the production of these virulence factors. 相似文献

Summary Mutants of a tomato strain ofXanthomonas campestris pv.vesicatoria (XCV), causal agent of bacterial spot of tomato and pepper, were produced using the transposon Tn5 carried in the suicide plasmid pGS9. One prototrophic mutant, M461, was isolated which caused no visible reaction on tomato or pepper, but maintained the wild-type ability to induce a hypersensitive reaction (HR) on tobacco. This mutant showed similar growth characteristics to the wild-type in culture, but growth in planta was reduced. A genomic library of wild-type XCV was constructed in the broad host range cosmid vector pLAFR3. Clone p6AD4 restored pathogenicity to M461 on tomato and the ability to induce a HR on pepper. This clone contained ca. 22 kb of XCV DNA. The insertion in M461 was in a site corresponding to a 1.1 kbEcoRI fragment of p6AD4. 相似文献

Cyclic di‐GMP [(bis‐(3′–5′)‐cyclic di‐guanosine monophosphate)] is an almost ubiquitous second messenger in bacteria that is implicated in the regulation of a range of functions that include developmental transitions, aggregative behaviour, adhesion, biofilm formation and virulence. Comparatively little is known about the mechanism(s) by which cyclic di‐GMP exerts these various regulatory effects. PilZ has been identified as a cyclic di‐GMP binding protein domain; proteins with this domain are involved in regulation of specific cellular processes, including the virulence of animal pathogens. Here we have examined the role of PilZ domain proteins in virulence and the regulation of virulence factor synthesis in Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc), the causal agent of black rot of crucifers. The Xcc genome encodes four proteins (XC0965, XC2249, XC2317 and XC3221) that have a PilZ domain. Mutation of XC0965, XC2249 and XC3221 led to a significant reduction of virulence in Chinese radish. Mutation of XC2249 and XC3221 led to a reduction in motility whereas mutation of XC2249 and XC0965 affected extracellular enzyme production. All mutant strains were unaffected in biofilm formation in vitro. The reduction of virulence following mutation of XC3221 could not be wholly attributed to an effect on motility as mutation of pilA, which abolishes motility, has a lesser effect on virulence. 相似文献

在以前的工作中,采用转座子Tn5 gusA5对野油菜黄单胞菌野油菜致病变种(Xcc)8004菌株进行诱变,获得一批胞外多糖(EPS)合成减少的突变体,对这些突变体的Tn5 gusA5的插入位点进行分析后,发现有两株突变体是wxcA基因不同插入位点的突变体。以前认为wxcA基因与脂多糖(LPS)的O-抗原合成有关而与EPS的合成无关。为明确wxc4基因的功能,对8004菌株的wxcA基因进行缺失,获得的△wxcA突变体的EPS产量与野生型菌株相比,减少了50%,并且一段PCR合成的包含wxcA基因的DNA片段能反式互补△wxcA突变体,恢复突变体的EPS产量。这证实了8004菌株的wxcA基因与EPS的合成产量有关。 相似文献

Bacterial pathogens use type III secretion systems (TTSS) to deliver effector proteins into eukaryotic cells for pathogenesis. In bacterial–plant interactions, one effector may function as an avirulence factor to betray the pathogen to the plant surveillance system and induce the hypersensitive response (HR) in the resistant host carrying a corresponding resistance ( R ) gene. However, the same effector can also sustain the growth of the pathogen by acting as a virulence factor to modulate plant physiology in the susceptible host lacking the corresponding R gene. Here, we identified and characterized a bifunctional TTSS effector AvrXccC belonging to the AvrB effector family in Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris 8004. This effector is required for full bacterial virulence in the susceptible host cabbage ( Brassica oleracea ) and avirulence in the resistant host mustard ( Brassica napiformis L.H. Baily). Expressing avrXccC in mustard-virulent strain Xcc HRI 3849A converts its virulence to avirulence. The effector AvrXccC is anchored to the plant plasma membrane, and the N-terminal myristoylation site (amino acids 2–7: GLcaSK) is essential for its localization. In addition, the avirulence function of AvrXccC for host recognition depends on its plasma membrane localization. Promoter activity assays showed that the expression of avrXccC is hrpG/hrpX -dependent. Moreover, the secretion of AvrXccC displayed hrp -dependency and the core sequence for AvrXccC translocation was defined to the N-terminal 40 amino acids. 相似文献

Zur is a regulator of the high-affinity zinc uptake system in many bacteria. In Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris 8004, a putative protein encoded by the open reading frame designated as XC1430 shows 42% amino acid similarity with the Zur of Escherichia coli. An XC1430-disrupted mutant 1430nk was constructed by homologous suicide plasmid integration. 1430nk failed to grow in rich medium supplemented with Zn2+ at a concentration of 400 microM and in nonrich medium supplemented with Zn2+ at a concentration of 110 microM, whereas the wild-type strain grew well in the same conditions. In rich medium with 400 microM Zn2+, 1430nk accumulated significantly more Zn2+ than the wild-type strain. 1430nk showed a reduction in virulence on the host plant Chinese radish (Raphanus sativus L. var. radiculus Pers.) and produced less extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) than did the wild-type strain in the absence of added zinc. These results revealed that XC1430 is a functional member of the Zur regulator family that controls zinc homeostasis, EPS production, and virulence in X. campestris pv. campestris. 相似文献

Cosmid clones able to restore exopolysaccharide production in possibly insertion sequence element-induced surface mutants of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris were isolated. By fragment-specific Tn5-lac mutagenesis of one of the cosmids, pXCB1002, a new DNA region which is involved in exopolysaccharide biosynthesis and which is organized into at least 12 complementation groups was identified. 相似文献

Disease surveys conducted in Trinidad between 1985—1987 showed that Cassava Bacterial Blight (CBB) is present in all but one county of the country with disease severity ratings varying from 1—5 depending on day/night temperatures. Field and greenhouse screening identified varieties such as Point Fortin fine leaf and CMC 40 as being resistant whereas M col 22 was moderately resistant to susceptible. Using a combination of antiserum produced to whole cells of Xanthomonas campestris pv. manibotis and a broth enrichment technique, dissemination of the pathogen by flood water was confirmed. The pathogen was detected at distances of up to 300 meters from infected fields. The significance of this mode of pathogen dissemination in initiating primary infection in Trinidad is discussed. 相似文献

Latent infections of tissue-cultured Anthurium andraeanum Lind. caused by the blight pathogen, Xanthomonas campestris pv. dieffenbachiae (McCulloch & Pirone) Dye, were examined. The pathogen survived in or on callus for over 4 months without producing symptoms in callus or turbidity in the medium. The pathogen survived for more than 1 year on or within stage II shoots without producing symptoms and was successively transferred three times as latently infected shoots were multiplied. The pathogen did not grow or survive for more than 2 weeks in Murashige and Skoog medium lacking plant material. The addition of coconut water enhanced bacterial growth and produced turbidity in culture media. Latently infected in vitro anthuriums may be inoculum sources for subsequent outbreaks of the disease. 相似文献
