Book Pseudomonas Syringae Pathovars and Related Pathogens

Download or read book Pseudomonas Syringae Pathovars and Related Pathogens written by K. Rudolph and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 687 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the last decade, research on Pseudomonas syringae pathovars and related pathogens has progressed rapidly, opening up many new avenues. The application of molecular genetics has provided new insights into determinants of pathogenicity and virulence. Progress has also been made in elucidating the chemical structures and modes of action of phytotoxins from Pseudomonas syringae; by establishing novel strategies for disease control; in biotechnological applications; by studying the resistant reaction of the plant with a combined biochemical and genetic approach; and in the development of new detection and identification methodologies as tools in epidemiological studies. With such rapid advances it becomes more and more difficult to keep abreast of the developments and concepts within disciplines, all involving research on pathovars of P. syringae. In an attempt to provide a balanced overview, recent developments in these rapidly expanding fields have been critically reviewed at the beginning of each chapter by internationally renowned experts. Our comprehensive coverage has been made possible because all the contributors to this volume presented their latest findings at the `5th International Conference on Pseudomonas syringae Pathovars and Related Pathogens' in Berlin, September 3-8, 1995. In this way, it was possible to bring together contributions from a wide range of fields including phytopathology, genetics, bacteriology, plant breeding, plant protection, and taxonomy. This book is not intended simply as a record of the proceedings of the Berlin Conference, but as an extension of recent findings and hypotheses put forward at the meeting. All papers published in this volume have been reviewed by the Editors.

Book The Hypersensitive Reaction in Plants to Pathogens

Download or read book The Hypersensitive Reaction in Plants to Pathogens written by Robert N. Goodman and published by American Phytopathological Society. This book was released on 1994 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nikolai Gogol’s short story is a sublime work of tragi-comedy. In it, he brilliantly ridicules the Ukrainian passion for litigation and reveals life as something really rather absurd. Ivan Ivanovich and Ivan Nikiforovich are the greatest of friends—until the day they begin a foolish quarrel that culminates in that very worst of insults: “And you, Ivan Ivanovich, are a goose.” From that moment on, not another word is spoken between them as they choose instead to fight out their differences in the courts. But it seems theirs is a lawsuit that is set to run for years and years.

Book Regulation of Virulence in the Plant Pathogen Pseudomonas Syringae Pv  Tomato DC3000

Download or read book Regulation of Virulence in the Plant Pathogen Pseudomonas Syringae Pv Tomato DC3000 written by Hanh Ngoc Lam and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The type III secretion system (T3SS) is required for virulence of the gram-negative plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 (DC3000) in tomato and Arabidopsis. The alternative sigma factor HrpL directly regulates expression of T3SS genes by binding to a short DNA sequence designated as the "hrp promoter". The ability of DC3000 to colonize plants, subdue multiple layers of plant defense and multiply in plant tissues relies on the activities carried out by the many T3SS regulon members (known collectively as hrp genes). Efforts to identify genes involved in pathogenicity were initiated over three decades ago. However, HrpL binding to hrp promoters has never been directly demonstrated and it is unclear if the list of HrpL-regulated genes is complete. The first goal of the research described here was to systemically and exhaustively identify HrpL-binding sites and likely hrp promoters in the DC3000 genome. Employing chromatin immuno-precipitation, coupled with high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-Seq) and transcription start site analysis (modified RNA-Seq), we found twenty sites representing novel hrp promoters. Using deletion analysis, we attempted to determine if the genes downstream from a subset of these promoters could be linked to virulence. However, the deletions did not affect the hypersensitive response or in planta growth of the resulting strains. Interestingly, many new HrpL regulon members appear to be unrelated to the T3SS (based on their annotations), and orthologs for some of these can be identified in non-pathogenic bacteria. The connection of these new HrpL regulon members to virulence is not obvious. The HrpL regulon is activated as a result of a chain of events, most of which are not well understood. It is known that RpoN, which controls the transcription of hrpL in DC3000, is required for virulence in several bacterial species. Motivated by the hypothesis that genes are coordinately regulated in order to serve a strategic purpose (e.g., virulence), our second goal was to look for other genes activated by RpoN in parallel with hrpL. RpoN ([sigma]54) requires specialized enhancer-binding proteins (EBPs) in order to activate transcription. This arrangement presumably allows the cell to respond to environmental signals by modifying the transcription of particular genes. Using ChIP-Seq and RNA-Seq, we identified candidate RpoN-dependent genes as well as genes that were differentially expressed under hrp-inducing conditions. This initial survey includes more than 200 likely RpoN-regulated genes involved in flagella biosynthesis, energy metabolism, nitrogen metabolism, transport and binding proteins, and small noncoding RNAs, as well as putative regulatory proteins and EBPs. Among the genes that were differentially regulated between hrp-inducing and repressing conditions, more than one dozen appear to be regulated by RpoN and are therefore potentially important in functions related to plant association or virulence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plant Hormones: Biosynthesis and Mechanisms of Action is based on research funded by the Chinese government’s National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC). This book brings a fresh understanding of hormone biology, particularly molecular mechanisms driving plant hormone actions. With growing understanding of hormone biology comes new outlooks on how mankind values and utilizes the built-in potential of plants for improvement of crops in an environmentally friendly and sustainable manner. This book is a comprehensive description of all major plant hormones: how they are synthesized and catabolized; how they are perceived by plant cells; how they trigger signal transduction; how they regulate gene expression; how they regulate plant growth, development and defense responses; and how we measure plant hormones. This is an exciting time for researchers interested in plant hormones. Plants rely on a diverse set of small molecule hormones to regulate every aspect of their biological processes including development, growth, and adaptation. Since the discovery of the first plant hormone auxin, hormones have always been the frontiers of plant biology. Although the physiological functions of most plant hormones have been studied for decades, the last 15 to 20 years have seen a dramatic progress in our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of hormone actions. The publication of the whole genome sequences of the model systems of Arabidopsis and rice, together with the advent of multidisciplinary approaches has opened the door to successful experimentation on plant hormone actions. Offers a comprehensive description of all major plant hormones including the recently discovered strigolactones and several peptide hormones Contains a chapter describing how plant hormones regulate stem cells Offers a fresh understanding of hormone biology, particularly molecular mechanisms driving plant hormone actions Discusses the built-in potential of plants for improvement of crops in an environmentally friendly and sustainable manner

Book An In depth Analysis of Iron and Pathogenicity Regulatory Pathways in Pseudomonas Syringae Pv  Syringae B728a

Download or read book An In depth Analysis of Iron and Pathogenicity Regulatory Pathways in Pseudomonas Syringae Pv Syringae B728a written by Jessica Williams Greenwald and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae strain B728a (P.s.s. B728a) is an economically significant plant pathogen that is capable of successful epiphytic colonization of leaf surfaces. Although the virulence factors associated with this pathogen's ability to cause disease have been well studied, the transition from epiphyte to pathogen is not well understood. The research described in this dissertation utilizes high throughput sequencing transcriptome analyses to define an iron regulatory network that is predicted to be utilized during the epiphytic portion of the P.s.s. B728a lifecycle. This dissertation also describes a collaborative microarray analysis that analyzes the P.s.s. B728a transcriptome at a global level. An iron associated sigma factor, AcsS, encoded within a peptide synthesis rich region of the P.s.s. B728a genome is shown to regulate the citrate siderophore achromobactin. RNA-seq transcriptome analysis reveals that this sigma factor regulates expression of genes predicted to be involved in functions that are important during the epiphytic stage of P.s.s. B728a, including genes involved in iron response, secretion, extracellular polysaccharide production, and cell motility. As part of a collaboration, the transcriptomes of the P.s.s. B728a genome and nine deletion mutants in regulatory genes were analyzed by microarray analayses using seven treatment conditions, including epiphytic and in planta conditions. As part of these microarray analyses, results are described for the global regulator, GacS, and a downstream transcription factor, SalA. This study confirms the role of GacS and SalA in the regulation of major virulence components of P.s.s. B728a such as phytotoxin production and Type III secretion. This study also elucidates a role for GacS and SalA regulation of genes important for epiphytic survival and function, including the Type VI secretion system, iron acquisition, and EPS production.
