A pLAFR3 cosmid clone designated pVir2 containing a 25-kilobase (kb) DNA insert was isolated from a wild-type Pseudomonas solanacearum GMI1000 genomic library. This cosmid was shown to complement all but one of the nine Tn5-induced mutants which have been isolated after random mutagenesis and which have lost both pathogenicity toward tomato and ability to induce hypersensitive reaction (HR) on tobacco (hrp mutants). The insert is colinear with the genome and provides restoration of the HR-inducing ability when transferred into several Tn5-induced hrp mutants, but failed to complement deletion mutants extending on both sides of the pVir2 region. Localized mutagenesis demonstrated that the hrp genes are clustered within a 17.5-kb region of pVir2 and that this cluster probably extends on the genomic region adjacent to the pVir2 insert. A 3-kb region adjacent to the hrp cluster modulates aggressiveness toward tomato but does not control HR-inducing ability. Sequences within the hrp cluster of pVir2 have homology with the genomic DNA of Xanthomonas campestris strains representing eight different pathovars, suggesting that a set of common pathogenicity functions could be shared by P. solanacearum and X. campestris. 相似文献

Dickeya dadantii is a broad host range phytopathogenic bacterium provoking soft rot disease on many plants including Arabidopsis. We showed that, after D. dadantii infection, the expression of the Arabidopsis BOS1 gene was specifically induced by the production of the bacterial PelB/C pectinases able to degrade pectin. This prompted us to analyze the interaction between the bos1 mutant and D. dadantii. The phenotype of the infected bos1 mutant is complex. Indeed, maceration symptoms occurred more rapidly in the bos1 mutant than in the wild type parent but at a later stage of infection, a necrosis developed around the inoculation site that provoked a halt in the progression of the maceration. This necrosis became systemic and spread throughout the whole plant, a phenotype reminiscent of that observed in some lesion mimic mutants. In accordance with the progression of maceration symptoms, bacterial population began to grow more rapidly in the bos1 mutant than in the wild type plant but, when necrosis appeared in the bos1 mutant, a reduction in bacterial population was observed. From the plant side, this complex interaction between D. dadantii and its host includes an early plant defence response that comprises reactive oxygen species (ROS) production accompanied by the reinforcement of the plant cell wall by protein cross-linking. At later timepoints, another plant defence is raised by the death of the plant cells surrounding the inoculation site. This plant cell death appears to constitute an efficient defence mechanism induced by D. dadantii during Arabidopsis infection. 相似文献

Ralstonia solanacearum produces hrp-dependent pili that are required for PopA secretion but not for attachment of bacteria to plant cells 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
As in many other Gram-negative plant pathogenic bacteria, the Ralstonia solanacearum hrp genes are involved in the production of a type III secretion apparatus that allows the translocation of PopA protein to the external medium. Here, we show that hrp genes are also involved in the biogenesis of pili that are mainly composed of the HrpY protein. These pili are produced at one pole of the bacterium and are also released into the external medium where they can form very long straight bundles. An hrpY mutant is defective in pilus production, impaired in interactions with plants and in secretion of the PopA protein but not in attachment to plant cells. 相似文献

Genetic dissection of Ralstonia solanacearum hrp gene cluster reveals that the HrpV and HrpX proteins are required for Hrp pilus assembly 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In both plant and mammalian Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria, type III secretion systems (TTSSs) play a crucial role in interactions with the host. All these systems share conserved proteins (called Hrc in plant pathogens), but each bacterium also produces a variable number of additional type III proteins either unique or with counterparts only in a limited number of related systems. In order to investigate the role of the different proteins encoded by the hrp gene cluster of the phytopathogenic bacterium Ralstonia solanacearum, non-polar mutants in all hrp genes (except for hrcQ) were analysed for their interactions with plants, their ability to secrete the PopA protein and their production of the Hrp pilus. In addition to Hrc proteins and the HrpY major component of the Hrp pilus, four additional Hrp proteins are indispensable for type III secretion and for interactions with plants. We also provide evidence that hrpV and hrpX mutants can still target the HrpY pilin outside the bacterial cell but are impaired in the production of Hrp pili, indicating that HrpV and HrpX proteins are involved in the assembly of this appendage. 相似文献

Using the RP4::mini-Mu pULB113 plasmid, an RP4 derivative carrying a deleted Mu prophage which allows the plasmid to pick up any chromosomal DNA segment to form R' plasmids, we cloned all of the genes of Erwinia carotovora involved in the catabolism of the hexuronates and in the transport of these substrates. With the R' plasmids we isolated, we performed complementation analysis and found that, in the Erwinia carotovora strain we used, the genes involved in the catabolism of the hexuronates are clustered in four regions of the chromosome. This genetic organization is compared with that of Escherichia coli K-12. 相似文献
