Xanthomonads are bacterial plant pathogens that cause diseases on many plant species,
including important crops. Key to pathogenicity of most Xanthomonas pathovars is a Hrp …

Xanthomonas is a large genus of Gram-negative bacteria that cause disease in hundreds of
plant hosts, including many economically important crops. Pathogenic species and …

Citrus canker caused by Xanthomonas citri subspecies citri (Xcc) is a severe disease for
most commercial citrus cultivars and responsible for significant economic losses worldwide …

In Arabidopsis, RPM1 confers resistance against Pseudomonas syringae expressing either
of two sequence unrelated type III effectors, AvrRpm1 or AvrB. An RPM1-interacting protein …

Bacterial plant‐pathogenic Xanthomonas strains translocate transcription activator‐like
(TAL) effectors into plant cells to function as specific transcription factors. Only a few plant …

Citrus bacterial canker (CBC) disease occurs worldwide and incurs considerable costs both
from control measures and yield losses. Bacteria that cause CBC require one of six known …

Plant-associated organisms secrete proteins and other molecules to modulate plant defense
circuitry and enable colonization of plant tissue. Understanding the molecular function of …

Plant pathogenic bacteria of the genus Xanthomonas cause a variety of diseases in
economically important monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous crop plants worldwide …

Every plant is closely associated with a variety of living organisms. Therefore, deciphering
how plants interact with mutualistic and parasitic organisms is essential for a comprehensive …

▪ Abstract Many phytopathogenic bacteria inject virulence effector proteins into plant cells via
a Hrp type III secretion system (TTSS). Without the TTSS, these pathogens cannot defeat …
