Abstract excerpt
In Ralstonia solanacearum, we previously have reported on the characterization of popP1 and popP2 genes. These genes encode type III-dependent pathogenicity effectors related to the large family of AvrRxv/YopJ cysteine proteases that are shared among pathogens of plants and animals. In this study, we identify a third gene, named popP3, that is inactivated in the genome sequence of strain GMI1000 by insertion of a...
