Genome-Wide Transcriptome Analysis of a Virulent sRNA, Trans217, in Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), the Causative Agent of Rice Bacterial Blight.

ABSTRACT: Small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) act as post-transcriptional regulators to participate in many cellular processes. Among these, sRNA trans217 has been identified as a key virulent factor associated with pathogenicity in rice, triggering hypersensitive reactions in non-host tobacco and facilitating the secretion of the PthXo1 effector in Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) strain PXO99^A. Elucidating potential targets and downstream regulatory genes is crucial for understanding cellular networks governing pathogenicity and plant resistance. To explore the targets regulated by sRNA trans217, transcriptome sequencing was carried out to assess differential expression genes (DEGs) between the wild-type strain PXO99^A and a mutant lacking the sRNA fragment u
