Abstract excerpt
Transposon mutagenesis was used to isolate nonpathogenic mutants of Xanthomonas campestris pv. glycines 8ra, which causes bacterial pustule disease in soybean. A 6.1-kb DNA region in which a mutation gave loss of pathogenicity was isolated and found to carry six open reading frames (ORFs). Four ORFs had homology with hrcU, hrcV, hrcR, and hrcS genes of Ralstonia solanacearum and X. campestris pv. vesicatoria. One...
