Tn5 transposon mutagenesis in Acidovorax citrulli for identification of genes required for pathogenicity on cucumber
2012-04-01
Abstract excerpt
An Acidovorax citrulli–cucumber pathosystem was established through which A. citrulli mutants with altered pathogenicity, generated by transposon mutagenesis, were identified on cucumber cotyledons. The A. citrulli group I strain FC440 was shown to grow faster in cucumber leaf tissues than a group II strain and was used for Tn5 transposon mutagenesis. A total of 2100 Tn5 insertional mutants were generated, and ana...
