Differential expression of pathogenicity- and virulence-related genes of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri under copper stress
In this study, we used real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) to evaluate the expression of 32 genes of Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri related to pathogenicity and virulence that are also involved in copper detoxification. Nearly all of the genes were up-regulated, including copA and copB. Two genes...
