Abstract excerpt
Mutants of a tomato strain of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria (XCV), causal agent of bacterial spot of tomato and pepper, were produced using the transposon Tn5 carried in the suicide plasmid pGS9. One prototrophic mutant, M461, was isolated which caused no visible reaction on tomato or pepper, but maintained the wild-type ability to induce a hypersensitive reaction (HR) on tobacco. This mutant showed...
