Soluble Plant Cell Signals Induce the Expression of the Type III Secretion System of Pseudomonas syringae and Upregulate the Production of Pilus Protein HrpA
Type III protein secretion is essential for the pathogenicity of Pseudomonas syringae on its host plants. Expression of HrpA, a major component of the type III secretion system (T3SS)-associated pilus, was studied both in plant leaves and in vitro using reporter genes. We found that induction of the...
