Mutants of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae Deficient in General Secretory Pathway Are Virulence Deficient and Unable to Secrete Xylanase
Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) causes bacterial leaf blight, a serious disease of rice. A virulence- and xylanase-deficient mutant of Xoo was isolated following ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS) mutagenesis. A cosmid clone that restored virulence and xylanase secretion was obtained from a genomic l...
