Low molecular weight plant extract induces metabolic changes and the secretion of extracellular enzymes, but has a negative effect on the expression of the type-III secretion system in Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris
Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris ( Xcc) is a plant pathogenic bacterium and as such has to adapt to a variety of environments. During the course of disease, Xcc colonizes the surface of its host, infects the xylem in the early stages, and develops a fully saprophytic life-style, aided by s...

Summary: | Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris (
Xcc) is a plant pathogenic bacterium and as such has to adapt to a variety of environments. During the course of disease,
Xcc colonizes the surface of its host, infects the xylem in the early stages, and develops a fully saprophytic life-style, aided by secreted degradative enzymes, in the late stages. To get some insight into this complex regulation,
Xcc was cultivated in the presence of low molecular weight host plant extract ( |
