Project description:To gain insight on the role of ROS pathway on the modulation of the cooperative behavior of a potentiall pathogenic leaf commensal Xanthomonas L148, in planta bacterial transcriptome landscape was profiled.
Project description:Purpose -Comparison of proteome incubated in different media (rich and minimal media) -Three Xanthomonas species were used (Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryaze, X. campestris pv. vesicatoria, and X. axonopodis pv. glycines. -Shotgun proteomic was used
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:Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. manihotis (Xam) is a gram negative bacterium causing Cassava Bacterial Blight (CBB), an important limitation for cassava production. The genetic bases underlying cassava resistance and susceptibility to different Xam strains are currently unknown. To identify genes and pathways important for the interaction, we used RNA-seq data to study transcriptomic changes in cassava plants inoculated with the non-pathogenic Xam strain, (ORST4) and a pathogenic strain, ORST4 transformed with the TAL effector TALE1Xam (ORST4+TALE1Xam). This analysis revealed that transcriptomic responses to both strains were very similar and were dominated by the induction of genes related to photosynthesis and phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and the down-regulation of genes related to jasmonic acid signaling, features possibly related to defense responses. Among the genes induced exclusively in cassava plants inoculated with ORST4 + TALE1Xam we found one gene containing a predicted binding site for TALE1Xam in its promoter region. This gene encodes for a Heat Shock Transcription Factor B3 (HsfB3) and likely acts a transcriptional repressor. HsfB3 may constitute a new type of susceptibility gene activated by a TAL effector that manages to be sufficient for symptom development without suppressing defense responses in the plant. mRNA of Cassava stems inoculated with a non-pathogenic (ORST4) and pathogenic (+TALE1Xam) strain of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. Manihotis, tissues collected at 0, 5 and7 days post-inoculation, 2 technical replicates used

Project description:Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and X. oryzae pv. oryzicola (Xoc) are important bacterial pathogens of the worldwide staple and grass model, rice. Xoo invades rice vascular tissue to cause bacterial leaf blight, a serious disease of rice throughout the world. Xoc colonizes the parenchyma tissue to cause bacterial leaf steak, a disease of emerging importance. We have designed oligonucleotide probes (50-70-mers) represented 2,858 Xoo genes and 1,816 Xoc genes annotated by The Institute for Genomic Research (TIGR). To validate the Xo arrays, self-hybridization samples and tests of the non-specific hybridization using randomly spotted oligonucleotides corresponding to the hygromycin phosphotransferase gene (hph), and blank spot and of the correlation coefficient between biological replicates as well as between duplicate spots revealed that the data generated from our oligo array were highly reliable and consistent. To demonstrate application of Xo array, we performed expression profiling experiments on arrays hybridized with RNA of Xoo and Xoc grown in the two different nutrient-condition media. Several sets of genes involved in bacterial movement, chemotaxis, and hrp genes differentially express in response to different treatment. Due to comprehensive views of microarray study, extended biological events of plant-bacteria interaction was described. This publicly available microarray for Xanthomonas oryzae (Xo) is an enabling resource for a large and international community of scientists to better understand not only Xo biology but also many other Xanthomonas species that cause significant losses on crops.

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.
