PhyA, a Secreted Protein of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, Is Required for Optimum Virulence and Growth on Phytic Acid as a Sole Phosphate Source

Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae causes bacterial leaf blight, a serious disease of rice. We have identified a novel virulence deficient mutant (BXO1691) of X. oryzae pv. oryzae that has a Tn5 insertion in an open reading frame (phyA; putative phytase A) encoding a 373-amino acid (aa) protein containin...
