The maize mitogen‐activated protein kinase kinase kinase gene ZmMAPKKK45 is associated with multiple disease resistance

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Summary Southern leaf blight (SLB), caused by the necrotrophic fungus Cochliobolus heterostrophus, is a major foliar disease of maize (Zea mays) world‐wide. A genome‐wide association study was performed to dissect the genetic basis of SLB resistance in maize. Functional validation was performed using mutant and transgenic analyses.

Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae Avirulence Genes Contribute Differently and Specifically to Pathogen Aggressiveness

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2000
Genomic copies of three Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae avirulence (avr) genes, avrXa7, avrXa10, and avrxa5, and four homologous genes, aB3.5, aB3.6, aB4.3, and aB4.5, were mutagenized individually or in combination to study the roles of avr genes in one ...

In vitro control of plant pathogenic Xanthomonas spp. using Poncirus trifoliata Rafin [PDF]

, 2014
The secondary metabolites such as essential oil and pure compounds (limonin and imperatorin) from Poncirus trifoliata Rafin were tested for in vitro control of phytopathogenic bacteria of Xanthomonas spp.

Removal of Transgenes and Evaluation of Yield Penalties in Genome Edited Bacterial Blight Resistant Rice Varieties

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bacterial blight (BB) of rice, caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), is one of the major drivers of yield losses in Africa and Asia. Xoo secretes TAL‐effectors (TALe) that induce host SWEET sucrose uniporter by binding to the effector binding element (EBE) of SWEET promoters, likely required for Xoo reproduction and virulence.

The avrRxo1 Gene from the Rice Pathogen Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola Confers a Nonhost Defense Reaction on Maize with Resistance Gene Rxo1

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2004
Maize lines that contain the single dominant gene Rxo1 exhibit a rapid hypersensitive response (HR) after infiltration with the rice bacterial streak pathogen Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola, but not with the rice bacterial blight pathogen X. oryzae pv.

De Novo Design and Synthesis of Novel Benzoxazinone Derivatives Targeting Dihydroxyacid Dehydratase

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dihydroxyacid dehydratase (DHAD), a key enzyme in the branched‐chain amino acid (BCAA) synthesis pathway, is a promising herbicide target. Currently, no commercial herbicides target DHAD, and no inhibitors are in development. Structural analysis suggests that coordination with iron–sulfur clusters and hydrophobic interactions with Tyr215 and ...
