Transcriptome analysis of a rice cultivar reveals the differentially expressed genes in response to wild and mutant strains of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae.

ABSTRACT: Bacterial blight (BB), caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), is a devastating disease in most of the rice growing regions worldwide. Among the 42 BB resistance (R) genes, Xa23 is an executor R gene, conferring broad-spectrum disease resistance to all naturally occurring biotypes of Xoo. In this study, CBB23, a rice line carrying Xa23 gene, was inoculated with wild PXO99^A and its mutant, P99M2, to retrieve the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). RNA-Seq analysis retrieved 1,235 DEGs (p-value ≤ 0.05) at 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours of post inoculation (hpi). Gene ontology (GO) analysis classified the DEGs functionally into biological process, cellular component and molecular function. KEGG pathway analysis categorized the DEGs into 11 different pathways, and the ribosome i
