Abstract excerpt
The interaction between the plant pathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria and its host plants is controlled by hrp genes (hypersensitive reaction and pathogenicity), which encode a type III protein secretion system. Among type III-secreted proteins are avirulence proteins, effectors involved in the induction of plant defence reactions. Using non-polar mutants, we investigated the role of 12 hrp genes in...
