Transcriptional profiling of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris in viable but nonculturable state.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) is an important seed-borne plant pathogenic bacteria that can cause a serious threat to cruciferous crops. Bacteria can enter into the viable but non-culturable (VBNC) state under stress conditions, and cause potential risks to agricultural production because the VBNC bacterial cells will evade culture-based detection. However, little is known about the mechanism of VBNC. Our previous study showed that Xcc could be induced into VBNC state by copper ion (Cu²⁺).

Results

Here, RNA-seq was performed to explore the mechanism of VBNC state. The results indicated that expression profiling was changed dramatically in the different VBNC stages (0 d, 1 d, 2 d and 10 d). Moreover, metabolism related pathways were enriche
