Project description:Bacteria of the genus Xanthomonas are economically important plant pathogens. Pathogenicity of Xanthomonas spp. depends on the type III-secretion system and additional virulence determinants. The number of sequenced Xanthomonas genomes increases rapidly, however, accurate annotation of these genomes is difficult, because it relies on gene prediction programs. In this study, we used a mass-spectrometry (MS)-based approach to identify the proteome of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria (Xcv) also known as X. euvesicatoria, a well-studied member of plant-pathogenic Xanthomonadaceae. Results Using different culture conditions, MS-datasets were searched against a six-frame-translated genome database of Xcv. In total, we identified 2,593 proteins covering 55% of the Xcv genome, including 764 hitherto hypothetical proteins. Our proteogenomic approach identified 30 new protein-coding genes and allowed correction of the N-termini of 50 protein-coding genes. For five novel and two N-terminally corrected genes the corresponding proteins were confirmed by immunoblot. Furthermore, our data indicate that two putative type VI-secretion systems encoded in Xcv play no role in bacterial virulence which was experimentally confirmed.
Project description:Transcription profiling of the DSF regulon in Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) using wild type and the rpfF mutant. Cell-cell signaling mediated by the quorum sensing molecule known as Diffusible Signaling factor (DSF) is required for virulence of Xanthomonas group of plant pathogens. DSF in different Xanthomonas and the closely related plant pathogen Xylella fastidiosa regulates diverse traits in a strain specific manner. The transcriptional profiling performed in this study is to elucidate the traits regulated by DSF from the Indian isolate of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, which exhibits traits very different from other Xanthomonas group of plant pathogen. In this study, transcription analysis was done between a wild type Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae strain and an isogenic strain that has a mutation in the DSF biosynthetic gene rpfF.

Project description:Due to low numbers and poor accessibility of host cells that are targeted for effector delivery, the actual biological functions of most effectors remain elusive. Here, we developed a novel Isolation Nuclei TArgeted by Bacterial Effectors (INTABE) system, which facilitates selectively recovering nuclei of the cells in Arabidopsis thaliana plants that have received type-III effectors of pathogenic Xanthomonas bacteria. Using these nuclei as studying materials, we analysed changes in host gene expression and their correlation with changes in DNA methylation induced by Xanthomonas effector Outer Protein D (XopD).
Project description:To compare the early transcriptional changes that occur in sweet orange leaves in response to Xanthomonas citri versus Xanthomonas aurantifolii pathotype C infection, plant leaves infiltrated with each bacterial pathogen were examined by RNAseq.
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE9640: Transcriptome Profiling of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae and Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola on two different medias GSE9643: Transcriptome Profiling of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae knockout mutants at different hybridization conditions and PMTs Keywords: SuperSeries Refer to individual Series
Project description:OsEDS1 is a key regulator of SA-mediated immunity in plants. The OsEDS1 knockout mutant (Oseds1) was characterized and shown to have increased susceptibility to Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc), suggesting the positive role of OsEDS1 in regulating rice disease resistance. To identify differentially regulated downstream of Oseds1, we performed transcriptome deep sequencing (RNA-seq) of wild type (ZH11) and Oseds1 inoculated with Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae (PXO99A).
Project description:ABA deficient mutant Osaba1-1 exhibits great resistance to Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) infection. To investigate gene expression profile changes at whole genome level between Osaba1-1 and wild-type (Nipponbare) rice during Xoo infection, we employed microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform.
