<i>Ralstonia solanacearum</i> pandemic lineage strain UW551 overcomes inhibitory xylem chemistry to break tomato bacterial wilt resistance
2023-01-20
Abstract excerpt
Plant pathogenic Ralstonia strains cause bacterial wilt disease by colonizing xylem vessels of many crops, including tomato. Host resistance is the best control for bacterial wilt, but resistance mechanisms of the widely used Hawaii7996 tomato breeding line are unknown. Using growth in ex vivo xylem sap as a proxy for host xylem, we found that Ralstonia strain GMI1000 grows in sap from both healthy plants and...
