Transcript analysis of some defense genes of tomato in response to host and non-host bacterial pathogens
The transcript levels of six defense genes including pathogenesis-related gene 1 (PR-1), pathogenesis-related gene 2 (PR-2), pathogenesis-related gene 5 (PR-5), lipoxygenase (LOX), phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) and catalase (CAT) were investigated in tomato plants inoculated with Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli as a non-host pathogen and X. euvesicatoria as a host pathogen. Activation o...
متن کاملAllelic variation contributes to bacterial host specificity
Understanding the molecular parameters that regulate cross-species transmission and host adaptation of potential pathogens is crucial to control emerging infectious disease. Although microbial pathotype diversity is conventionally associated with gene gain or loss, the role of pathoadaptive nonsynonymous single-nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) has not been systematically evaluated. Here, our g...
متن کاملHost specificity in biological control: insights from opportunistic pathogens
Host/prey specificity is a significant concern in biological control. It influences the effectiveness of a natural enemy and the risks it might have on non-target organisms. Furthermore, narrow host specificity can be a limiting factor for the commercialization of natural enemies. Given the great diversity in taxonomy and mode of action of natural enemies, host specificity is a highly variable ...
متن کاملPathogens: Bacterial Needles Ruled to Length and Specificity
The mechanisms behind length regulation of prokaryotic surface structures has long eluded microbiologists. The recent identification of a protein that functions as a 'molecular ruler' to determine the physical length of a bacterial extracellular needle advances our understanding of surface structure biogenesis.
متن کاملThe complex interactions of bacterial pathogens and host defenses.
The introduction of antibiotics into clinical practice in the 1950s led to the presumption that bacterial infectious diseases would become a ‘thing of the past’. While antibiotics have resulted in major decreases in morbidity and mortality in the subsequent decades, the global burden of infectious diseases remains one of the largest challenges facing the international biomedical community. Bact...
