Project description:Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is a serious seed/soil borne disease that causes severe yield and quality losses in many plants. In order to understand the change in genome expression of inculated plants, microarray analysis were performed.
Project description:The aim of the project is to decipher the role of DNA methylation in the plant pathogenic bacteria Ralstonia solanacearum during host adaptation. As a first step, we present here the DNA methylation profile of the GMI1000 reference strain.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in the bacterial wilt pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum, strain GMI1000 at 20°C and 28°C in culture and in planta. The tropical strain GMI1000 cannot wilt tomato plants at 20°C although it can cause full-blown disease at 28°C.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in the bacterial wilt pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum, strain UW551 at 20°C and 28°C in culture and in planta. The temperatel strain UW551 can wilt and cause full-blown disease on tomato plants at 28°C as well as at 20°C.
Project description:Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is a serious seed/soil borne disease that causes severe yield and quality losses in many plants. In order to understand the change in genome expression of inculated plants, microarray analysis were performed. Twenty one days old roots of Arabidopsis Col-0 were inoculated with Ralstonia solanacearum race 4 @ 10^9 & 10^8 cfu/ml in different plants, distil water were mock inoculated, after five days plants were taken for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. Plants were incubated in growth chamber for disease development, temperature and humidity were maintained as per plant requirement for both treated and control plants.
Project description:Bacterial wilt caused by Ralstonia solanacearum is a lethal, soil-borne disease of tomato. Control of the disease with chemicals and crop rotation is insufficient, because the pathogen is particularly well adapted for surviving in the soil and rhizosphere. Therefore, cultivar resistance is the most effective means for controlling bacterial wilt, but the molecular mechanisms of resistance responses remain unclear. We used microarrays to obtain the characteristics of the gene expression changes that are induced by R. solanacearum infection in resistant cultivar LS-89 and susceptible cultivar Ponderosa.
Project description:Investigation of whole genome gene expression level changes in the bacterial wilt pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum, strain GMI1000 at 20°C and 28°C in culture and in planta. The tropical strain GMI1000 cannot wilt tomato plants at 20°C although it can cause full-blown disease at 28°C. A 16 array study using total RNA recovered from the following: 8 separate cultures of Ralstonia solanacearum strain GMI1000 grown in rich medium-CPG (4 grown at 20°C and 4 grown at 28°C) 8 separate in planta samples of Ralstonia solanacearum strain GMI1000 harvested from diseased tomato plants cv. BonnyBest (4 recovered from plants grown at 20°C and 4 from plants grown at 28°C) Each array (4-plex format) measures the expression level of 5061 genes from Ralstonia solanacearum strain GMI1000 with 2 to 6, 40-70 mer probes per gene, with two-fold technical redundancy. The arrays also contain probes for intergenic regions with no technical replicates.
