CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Disruption of CsLIEXP1 Reveals Expansin as a Key Susceptibility Factor for Citrus Canker Disease

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions
The Citrus sinensis LATERAL ORGAN BOUNDERIES 1 (CsLOB1) gene, which is directly induced by the Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri effector PthA4, functions as a transcription factor and citrus canker susceptibility (S) gene. Genome editing of CsLOB1 has been

The sigma 54 genes rpoN1 and rpoN2 of Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri play different roles in virulence, nutrient utilization and cell motility

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2016
The sigma factor 54 (σ54) controls the expression of many genes in response to nutritional and environmental conditions. There are two σ54 genes, rpoN1 (XAC1969) and rpoN2 (XAC2972), in Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri.
