Plant-like bacterial expansins play contrasting roles in two tomato vascular pathogens
Expansin proteins, which loosen plant cell walls, play critical roles in normal plant growth and development. The horizontal acquisition of functional plant‐like expansin genes in numerous xylem‐colonizing phytopathogenic bacteria suggests that bacterial expansins may also contribute to virulence. T...
