Project description:Biofilm lifestyle is critical for bacterial pathogens to colonize and protect themselves from host immunity and antimicrobial chemicals in plants and animals. The formation and regulation mechanism of phytobacterial biofilm are still obscure. Here, we found that Ralstonia solanacearum Resistance to ultraviolet C (RuvC) is highly abundant in biofilm and positively regulates pathogenicity by governing systemic movement in tomato xylem. RuvC protein accumulates at the later stage of biofilm and specifically targets the Holliday junction (HJ) like structures to disrupt biofilm extracellular DNA (eDNA) lattice, thus facilitating biofilm dispersal. Recombinant RuvC protein can resolve extracellular HJ prevent bacterial biofilm formation. Heterologous expression of R. solanacearum or Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae RuvC with plant secretion signal in tomato or rice confers resistance to bacterial wilt or bacterial blight disease, respectively. Plant chloroplast localized HJ resolvase monokaryotic chloroplast 1 (MOC1) which is structural similar to bacterial RuvC shows a strong inhibit effect on bacterial biofilm formation. Re-localization of SlMOC1 to apoplast in tomato roots leads to increase resistance to bacterial wilt. Our novel finding reveals a critical pathogenesis mechanism of R. solanacearum and provides an efficient biotechnology strategy to improve plant resistance to bacteria vascular disease.
