Distribution of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae DNA Modification Systems in Asia

The presence or absence of two DNA modification systems, XorI and XorII, in 195 strains of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae collected from different major rice-growing countries of Asia was assessed. All four possible phenotypes (XorI⁺ XorII⁺, XorI⁺ XorII⁻, XorI⁻ XorII⁺ and XorI⁻ XorII⁻) were detected in the population at a ratio of approximately 1:2:2:2. The XorI⁺ XorII⁺ and XorI⁻ XorII⁺ phenotypes were observed predominantly in strains from southeast Asia (Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia), whereas strains with the phenotypes XorI⁻ XorII⁻ and XorI⁺ XorII⁻ were distributed in south Asia (India and Nepal) and northeast Asia (China, Korea, and Japan), respectively. Based on the prevalence and geographic distribution of the XorI and XorII systems, we suggest that the XorI modification system originated in northeast Asia and was later introduced to southeast Asia, while the XorII system originated in southeast Asia and moved to northeast Asia and south Asia. Genomic DNA from all tested strains of X. oryzae pv. oryzae that were resistant to digestion by endonuclease XorII or its isoschizomer PvuI also hybridized with a 7.0-kb clone that contained the XorII modification system, whereas strains that were digested by XorII or PvuI lacked DNA that hybridized with the clone. Size polymorphisms were observed in fragments that hybridized with the 7.0-kb clone. However, a single hybridization pattern generally was found in XorII⁺ strains within a country, indicating clonal maintenance of the XorII methyltransferase gene locus. The locus was monomorphic for X. oryzae pv. oryzae strains from the Philippines and all strains from Indonesia and Korea.     

Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism Fingerprinting Differentiates Genetic Diversity of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae from Northern Thailand

Thirty isolates of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae were collected from different rice‐producing area in northern Thailand. For the assessment of genetic variation of bacterial blight pathogen, 19 primer combinations of amplified fragment length polymorphism primer system were screened to evaluate the genetic diversity and five combinations were selected according to their producibility, number of scorable bands and differences detected among representative isolates. Six lineages of X. oryzae pv. oryzae were identified in northern Thailand base on location. Lineage A composed of members from two provinces, Phitsanulok and Chainat. Lineage B was from various provinces as Sukhothai, Phetchaboon, Phicit, Phayao and Phrae. Lineage C was from Phitsanulok and Phrae. Lineage D comprised of members from Phrae, Chiangmai and Chiangrai while the lineage E composed of isolates from Sukhothai and Phitsanulok. The final lineage, lineage F, was from Lampang. Lineages B and D were the most widely distributed while lineage E seemed to be restricted to specific planting area. Wide distribution of the pathogen might be due to seed allocation and germplasm exchanged. Analysis showed that diversity of pathogen is due to single field and cultivars‐specific effects. The results of this study will facilitate the use of effective bacterial blight resistance gene in northern Thailand.     

Analysis of Pathotypic and Genotypic Diversity of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae in China

Virulence analysis and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) were used to evaluated the population structure of Xanthomonas oryzae pv . oryzae ( Xoo ) from the main rice-growing region in China. The pathotype of Xoo was determined for 103 strains by inoculating 13 near-isogenic rice lines using IR24 as the recurrent parent. Sixty-one pathotypes was shared by these strains, on the basis of the consensus of three clustering statistics, and four clusters for pathotype were formed. Cluster 2 consists of strains with high molecular polymorphorism and many pathotypes that are either virulent to a majority of the 13 major resistance ( R ) genes or avirulent only to Xa21 , and is geographically dispersed. The resistance gene Xa21 has broader resistance than others to the strains tested. A probe from a member of the avrBs3/pthA type III effector family, 1376 bp Sph I-digested fragment, was used to screen the genomes of 52 strains tested. Four common bands were found in the DNA fingerprint pattern of Xoo , suggesting basic patterns of evolutionary relationship for members of avrBs3/pthA family and/or the pathogen. Each distinct RFLP banding pattern of each strain was considered as a haplotype; 42 haplotypes were revealed by the probe and divided into four lineages by the same statistics method. It was observed that some isolates with different pathotypes shared the same haplotype and others with different haplotypes harboured identical pathotype. There was a weak correlation between virulent pathotypes and molecular haplotypes.     

Pathotype and Genetic Diversity amongst Indian Isolates of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae

A number of rice resistance genes, called Xa genes, have been identified that confer resistance against various strains of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), the causal agent of bacterial blight. An understanding of pathotype diversity within the target pathogen population is required for identifying the Xa genes that are to be deployed for development of resistant rice cultivars. Among 1024 isolates of Xoo collected from 20 different states of India, 11 major pathotypes were distinguished based on their reaction towards ten Xa genes (Xa1, Xa3, Xa4, xa5, Xa7, xa8, Xa10, Xa11, xa13, Xa21). Isolates belonging to pathotype III showing incompatible interaction towards xa8, xa13 and Xa21 and compatible interaction towards the rest of Xa genes formed the most frequent (41%) and widely distributed pathotype. The vast majority of the assayed Xoo isolates were incompatible with one or more Xa genes. Exceptionally, the isolates of pathotype XI were virulent on all Xa genes, but have restricted distribution. Considering the individual R-genes, Xa21 appeared as the most broadly effective, conferring resistance against 88 % of the isolates, followed in decreasing order by xa13 (84 %), xa8 (64 %), xa5 (30 %), Xa7 (17 %) and Xa4 (14 %). Fifty isolates representing all the eleven pathotypes were analyzed by southern hybridization to determine their genetic relatedness using the IS1112 repeat element of Xoo. Isolates belonging to pathotype XI were the most divergent. The results suggest that one RFLP haplotype that is widely distributed all over India and is represented in strains from five different pathotypes might be an ancestral haplotype. A rice line with xa5, xa13 and Xa21 resistance genes is resistant to all strains, including those belonging to pathotype XI. This three gene combination appears to be the most suitable Xa gene combination to be deployed in Indian rice cultivars.     

Genotypic and Pathotypic Diversity of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae Strains in Taiwan

Rice bacterial leaf blight, caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae [(Ishiyama) Swings et al. 1990] (Xoo), is a major rice disease of the second crop season in Taiwan. A total of 88 Xoo strains collected from 10 major rice cultivating areas in Taiwan from 1986, 1997, 2000, 2004, and 2011 were characterized by repetitive‐element PCR (REP‐PCR) fingerprinting and virulence analyses. Among the five genetic clusters identified by the pJEL1/pJEL2 (IS1112‐based) and REP1R‐Dt/REP2‐D [repetitive extragenic palindromic (REP)‐based] primer sets, clusters A, C and D contained Xoo strains from geographically distant regions, which suggests a high frequency of Xoo dispersal in Taiwan. The 88 Xoo strains were evaluated by inoculations on IRBB near‐isogenic lines and five Taiwan rice cultivars. A subset of 45 moderately or highly virulent strains were classified into 15 pathotypes by their compatible or incompatible reactions on IR24 and 12 IRBB near‐isogenic lines, each containing a single resistance gene. Analysis of molecular haplotypes and pathotypes revealed a partial relationship. IRBB5, IRBB21 and IRBB4 were incompatible with 96%, 96% and 73% of the strains, so xa5, Xa21 and Xa4 can recognize most of the Xoo strains in Taiwan and elicit resistance. In contrast, IRBB3 (Xa3), IRBB8 (xa8), IRBB10 (Xa10), IRBB11 (Xa11), IRBB13 (xa13) and IRBB14 (Xa14) were susceptible to almost all of the 45 Xoo strains. Inoculation trials revealed significant differences in the susceptibility of five Taiwan cultivars to Xoo (from high to low susceptibility: Taichung Sen 10 >  IR24, Taichung Native 1 >  Taichung 192, Taikeng 9, Tainan 11). This study provides useful information for resistance breeding and the development of disease management strategies against bacterial blight disease of rice.

Elevational Variation in Diversity of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae in South‐West China

Virulence analysis and two polymerase chain reaction–based assays were used to evaluate the population structure of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) from different elevations ranging from 150 to 2600 m in south‐west China. Among the 218 isolates of Xoo, 18 pathotypes were identified using six near‐isogenic rice lines, each containing a single resistance gene. Among them, pathotype 9 predominated in low and mid‐elevations was virulent to all resistance genes, including Xa2, Xa3, xa5, xa13, Xa14 and Xa18. However, pathotype 2 was predominant at high elevation and was virulent to Xa18 only. The 18 pathotypes were grouped into four clusters. Isolates belonging to cluster 1 were mainly found at high and mid‐elevations, while those of cluster 4 were mainly found at low elevations. There were significant trends of virulence of isolates from low to high with the elevation from high to low. The ERIC and J3 primers were used to screen the genomes of 218 isolates, and 56 molecular haplotypes were found. Multiple correspondence analyses revealed that 56 haplotypes were divided into four putative genetic lineages. Lineage 2 was the most frequently detected from 150 to 2600 m; it was clearly shown that isolates from high elevation with 80% is much more than from low and mid‐elevation in the lineage. It is intriguing that genetic variation of Xoo is restricted by physical geographical barriers of elevations. This is the first report on the relationship of pathotypic and genotypic diversity of Xoo at different elevations.     

Pathotypic variation of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae in Bangladesh

Bacterial Blight (BB) caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), a destructive disease of rice. Altogether, 96 isolates of Xoo were collected from 19 rice growing districts of Bangladesh in irrigated and rainfed seasons during 2014 to assess pathotypic variation. Pathotypic analyses on a set of 12 Near Isogenic Lines (NILs) of rice containing resistance genes viz. Xa1, Xa2, Xa3, Xa4, Xa5, Xa7, Xa8, Xa10, Xa11, Xa13, Xa14 and Xa21 and two check varieties IR24 and TN1 by leaf clip-inoculation technique. A total of 24 pathotypes were identified based on their virulence patterns on NILs tested. Among these, pathotypes VII, XII, and XIV considered as major, containing maximum number of isolates, (9.38% each) frequently distributed in North to Mid-Eastern districts of Bangladesh. Most virulent pathotype I recorded from Habiganj and Brahmanbaria. This pathotypic variation explained the pathogenic relatedness of X. oryzae pv. oryzae populations from diverse geographic areas in Bangladesh.

Status of Streptomycin Resistance Development in Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae and Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola in China and their Resistance Characters

Rice leaves with bacterial blight or bacterial leaf streak symptoms were collected in southern China in 2007 and 2008. Five hundred and thirty‐four single‐colony isolates of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae and 827 single‐colony isolates of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola were obtained and tested on plates for sensitivity to streptomycin. Four strains (0.75%) of X. oryzae pv. oryzae isolated from the same county of Province Yunnan were resistant to streptomycin, and the resistance factor (the ratio of the mean median effective concentration inhibiting growth of resistant isolates to that of sensitive isolates) was approximately 226. The resistant isolate also showed streptomycin resistance in vivo. In addition to resistant isolates, isolates of less sensitivity were also present in the population of X. oryzae pv. oryzae from Province Yunnan. However, no isolates with decreased streptomycin‐sensitivity were obtained from the population of X. oryzae pv. oryzicola. Mutations in the rpsL (encoding S12 protein) and rrs genes (encoding 16S rRNA) and the presence of the strA gene accounting for streptomycin resistance in other phytopathogens or animal and human pathogenic bacteria were examined on sensitive and resistant strains of X. oryzae pv. oryzae by polymerase chain reaction amplification and sequencing. Neither the presence of the strA gene nor mutations in the rpsL or rrs were found, suggesting that different resistance mechanisms are involved in the resistant isolates of X. oryzae pv. oryzae.     

Some tryptophan pathways in the phytopathogen Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae

Xanthomonas oryzae pv.oryzae, the causal or-ganism of bacterial blight of rice which produces leaf blight as well as kresek (wilt) symptoms in plants were tested for indole, auxin production in culture supplemented withl-tryptophan. On the basis of indoleacetic acid (IAA) production the isolates were grouped into IAA-positive and IAA-negative. Out of 17 isolates, 11 were IAA-positive while 6 were IAA-negative. The isolates metabolized tryptophan through two different routes and the isolates vary in the pathway of tryptophan utilization. The IAA-positive isolates converted tryptophan to IAA as the end product, whereas the IAA-negative isolates formed anthranilate as an intermediate metabolite and finally produced pyrocatecholvia the kynurenine pathway. Quantification of tryptophan metabolism revealed that the maximum production of IAA and pyrocatechol in culture occurred during 2-d incubation at 30±2°C.     

Involvement of Gluconeogenic Pathway in Virulence of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae

Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae causes bacterial leaf blight, one of the most widespread and destructive bacterial diseases of rice. A phosphoenolpyruvate synthase (ppsA)‐disrupted mutant OSPAM was generated by homologous suicide plasmid integration. The mutant was unable to grow in medium with pyruvate or C₄‐dicarboxylates as the sole carbon source, compared with the wild‐type, indicating a disruption in ppsA function. The mutant showed a reduction in virulence on rice but still induced a hypersensitive response in tobacco. When the mutant was complemented, the response was recovered to wild‐type. These results suggested that X. oryzae pv. oryzae possesses only PPSA route in gluconeogenesis, which is necessary for virulence.     

DNA fingerprinting of Indian isolates of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae

 A high level of genetic polymorphism was detected among Indian isolates of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae using hypervariable probes such as a microsatellite oligonucleotide, probe (TG)₁₀, a human minisatellite probe, pV47, an avirulence gene probe, avrXa10 and a repeat clone, pBS101. These DNA probes detected multiple loci in the bacterial genome generating complex DNA fingerprints and differentiated all of the bacterial isolates. Analysis of fingerprints indicated that pV47, (TG)₁₀ and pBS101 have a lower probability of identical match than avrXa10 and therefore are potential probes for DNA fingerprinting and variability analysis of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae pathogen populations. Cluster analysis based on hybridization patterns using all of the above probes showed five groups at 56% similarity. Studies on the methylation patterns of isolates representing the three important races of X. oryzae pv. oryzae indicated more methylation in the most virulent isolate, suggesting a possible role of methylation in pathogenicity.

Phosphorylation of proteins in Xanthomonas campestris pv. oryzae

Protein phosphorylation was studied in Xanthomonas campestris pv. oryzae in vivo and in vitro. In vitro labelling showed that the protein kinases in this bacterium used both ATP and GTP as nucleotide substrates at nearly the same efficiency. At least 6 proteins were phosphorylated in vitro, including abundant species of p81, p44, and p32 with M _r of 81000, 44000, and 32000, respectively. Three types of phosphate-protein linkage were found in this bacterium: O-phosphate, N-phosphate and probably acyl phosphate. The p81 and p32 were phosphorylated at histidine. The p44 had mainly phosphoserine and a small part of phosphohistidine. The phosphorylation profile was variable depending on the growth conditions. Furthermore, by a virulent phage Xp10 infection the quantity of phosphorylation increased: for phosphohistinine more than 10-fold, and for phosphoserine about 3-fold. Thus, in this bacterium phosphorylation may be linked with a physiological regulation system and with Xp10 phage development.     

Culture medium for Xanthomonas campestris pv. oryzae

Y uan , W. 1990. Culture medium for Xanthomonas campestris pv. oryzae. Journal of Applied Bacteriology 69 , 798–805.
Studies on nutrient requirements of four Chinese strains of Xanthomonas campestris pv. oryzae in a modified Watanabe's medium led to the development of a new synthetic medium containing sucrose, sodium glutamate, methionine, KH₂PO₄, NH₄C1 and iron chelated with EDTA. The concentration of each ingredient was optimized based on the number of colonies and time required for their appearance. Various concentrations of some nutrients were compared based upon their effects on growth of the pathogen strains and 34 contaminants from rice materials. Tryp-tone enhanced the growth of X. c. oryzae more than that of many contaminants, including Erwinia herbicola . Peptone stimulated growth of X. c. oryzae without promoting excessive contamination. When compared with other media used for X. c. oryzae , the new culture medium enriched with tryptone and peptone gave the highest recovery and earliest appearance of colonies of Chinese strains of this bacterium.     

Characterization of the hrpF pathogenicity peninsula of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae

The hrp gene cluster of Xanthomonas spp. contains genes for the assembly and function of a type III secretion system (TTSS). The hrpF genes reside in a region between hpaB and the right end of the hrp cluster. The region of the hrpF gene of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae is bounded by two IS elements and also contains a homolog of hpaF of X. campestris pv. vesicatoria and two newly identified genes, hpa3 and hpa4. A comparison of the hrp gene clusters of different species of Xanthomonas revealed that the hrpF region is a constant yet more variable peninsula of the hrp pathogenicity island. Mutations in hpaF, hpa3, and hpa4 had no effect on virulence, whereas hrpF mutants were severely reduced in virulence on susceptible rice cultivars. The hrpF genes from X. campestris pv. vesicatoria, X. campestris pv. campestris, and X. axonopodis pv. citri each were capable of restoring virulence to the hrpF mutant of X. oryzae pv. oryzae. Correspondingly, none of the Xanthomonas pathovars with hrpF from X. oryzae pv. oryzae elicited a hypersensitive reaction in their respective hosts. Therefore, no evidence was found for hrpF as a host-specialization factor. In contrast to the loss of Bs3-dependent reactions by hrpF mutants of X. campestris pv. vesicatoria, hrpF mutants of X. oryzae pv. oryzae with either avrXa10 or avrXa7 elicited hypersensitive reactions in rice cultivars with the corresponding R genes. A double hrpFxoo-hpa1 mutant also elicited an Xa10-dependent resistance reaction. Thus, loss of hrpF, hpal, or both may reduce delivery or effectiveness of type III effectors. However, the mutations did not completely prevent the delivery of effectors from X. oryzae pv. oryzae into the host cells.     

Genetic locus encoding functions involved in biosynthesis and outer membrane localization of xanthomonadin in Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae

Xanthomonadins are membrane-bound, brominated, aryl-polyene pigments specific to the genus Xanthomonas. We have characterized a genetic locus (pig) from Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae which contains four open reading frames (ORFs) that are essential for xanthomonadin production. Three of these ORFs are homologous to acyl carrier proteins, dehydratases, and acyl transferases, suggesting a type II polyketide synthase pathway for xanthomonadin biosynthesis. The fourth ORF has no homologue in the database. For the first time, we report that a putative cytoplasmic membrane protein encoded in the pig locus is required for outer membrane localization of xanthomonadin in X. oryzae pv. oryzae. We also report the identification of a novel 145-bp palindromic Xanthomonas repetitive intergenic consensus element that is present in two places in the pig locus. We estimate that more than 100 copies of this element might be present in the genome of X. oryzae pv. oryzae and other xanthomonads.
