  • Common Bacterial Blight (Xanthomonas Axonopodis Pv

This review was to review with an objective of reviewing the biology, economic importance of CBB of common bean crop disease and its management options, with an emphasis on the future research direction and priorities. CBB disease, caused by the gram-negative bacterial pathogen Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli (Xap) and its fuscans variant Xanthomonas fuscans subsp. fuscans (Xff) is the major bottleneck in bean production in the world as well as in Ethiopia. It is a serious bacterial disease of common bean which causes lesions on the leaves, stems, pods and seeds of the plant. The disease affects seed quality and can reduce yield by up to 45%, may be more in susceptible cultivars. CBB is very difficult to control due to seed-borne nature of the bacteria and its capacity to produce huge amounts of secondary inoculum.

  • Horizontal Gene Transfer Plays a Major Role in the Pathological Convergence of Xanthomonas Lineages on Common Bean Nicolas W
    Chen et al. BMC Genomics (2018) 19:606 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-018-4975-4 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Horizontal gene transfer plays a major role in the pathological convergence of Xanthomonas lineages on common bean Nicolas W. G. Chen1†, Laurana Serres-Giardi1†, Mylène Ruh1, Martial Briand1, Sophie Bonneau1, Armelle Darrasse1, Valérie Barbe2, Lionel Gagnevin3,4, Ralf Koebnik4 and Marie-Agnès Jacques1* Abstract Background: Host specialization is a hallmark of numerous plant pathogens including bacteria, fungi, oomycetes and viruses. Yet, the molecular and evolutionary bases of host specificity are poorly understood. In some cases, pathological convergence is observed for individuals belonging to distant phylogenetic clades. This is the case for Xanthomonas strains responsible for common bacterial blight of bean, spread across four genetic lineages. All the strains from these four lineages converged for pathogenicity on common bean, implying possible gene convergences and/or sharing of a common arsenal of genes conferring the ability to infect common bean. Results: To search for genes involved in common bean specificity, we used a combination of whole-genome analyses without a priori, including a genome scan based on k-mer search. Analysis of 72 genomes from a collection of Xanthomonas pathovars unveiled 115 genes bearing DNA sequences specific to strains responsible for common bacterial blight, including 20 genes located on a plasmid. Of these 115 genes, 88 were involved in successive events of horizontal gene transfers among the four genetic lineages, and 44 contained nonsynonymous polymorphisms unique to the causal agents of common bacterial blight. Conclusions: Our study revealed that host specificity of common bacterial blight agents is associated with a combination of horizontal transfers of genes, and highlights the role of plasmids in these horizontal transfers.

  • The Type VI Secretion System of Xanthomonas Phaseoli Pv
    Montenegro Benavides et al. BMC Microbiology (2021) 21:14 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12866-020-02066-1 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The type VI secretion system of Xanthomonas phaseoli pv. manihotis is involved in virulence and in vitro motility Nathaly Andrea Montenegro Benavides1, Alejandro Alvarez B.1, Mario L. Arrieta-Ortiz2, Luis Miguel Rodriguez-R3, David Botero1, Javier Felipe Tabima4, Luisa Castiblanco1, Cesar Trujillo1, Silvia Restrepo1 and Adriana Bernal1* Abstract Background: The type VI protein secretion system (T6SS) is important in diverse cellular processes in Gram- negative bacteria, including interactions with other bacteria and with eukaryotic hosts. In this study we analyze the evolution of the T6SS in the genus Xanthomonas and evaluate its importance of the T6SS for virulence and in vitro motility in Xanthomonas phaseoli pv. manihotis (Xpm), the causal agent of bacterial blight in cassava (Manihot esculenta). We delineate the organization of the T6SS gene clusters in Xanthomonas and then characterize proteins of this secretion system in Xpm strain CIO151. Results: We describe the presence of three different clusters in the genus Xanthomonas that vary in their organization and degree of synteny between species. Using a gene knockout strategy, we also found that vgrG and hcp are required for maximal aggressiveness of Xpm on cassava plants while clpV is important for both motility and maximal aggressiveness. Conclusion: We characterized the T6SS in 15 different strains in Xanthomonas and our phylogenetic analyses suggest that the T6SS might have been acquired by a very ancient event of horizontal gene transfer and maintained through evolution, hinting at their importance for the adaptation of Xanthomonas to their hosts.
