In the present study, multiplex PCR and SYBR Green real-time PCR were developed to facilitate the simultaneous detection of three important rice pathogens, Xanthomonas oryzae pv.oryzae, X. oryzae pv. oryzicola, and Burkholderia glumae. The unique PCR primer sets were designed from portions of a putative glycosyltransferase gene of X. oryzae pv. oryzae, an Avr Rxo gene of X. oryzae pv. oryzicola, and an internal transcribed spacer(ITS) sequence of B. glumae. Using a multiplex PCR assay, X. oryzae pv. oryzae, X. oryzae pv. oryzicola, and B. glumae were detected in one PCR reaction that contained the newly developed primer set mix. Using SYBR Green real-time PCR assays, X. oryzae pv. oryzae, X. oryzae pv. oryzicola, and B. glumae were detected at 1, 1, and 10 fg μL-1, respectively. These newly designed molecular assays are sensitive and could be reliable tools for pathogen detection and disease forecasting.展开更多

All the hrp mutants lost their pathogenicity on a susceptible host plant, rice (Shanyou63), and elicitation of the hypersensitive response (HR) on a nonhost plant, tobacco (NC89). Extracellular enzyme (amy lase, pectate lyase, proteinase, cellulase and lipase) activities of all the hrp mutants were similar to those of the corresponding wild type strains. The response of tobacco to cell sonicated integrations of the wild type strains and the hrp mutants demonstrated that there existed an HR eliciting substance which was heat stable and sensitive to protease. No HR appeared on tobacco after infiltration of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of both the wild strains and hrp mutants into tobacco leaves. The ability of the Xooc hrp mutants to induce HR on tobacco and cause streak disease on rice was restored by complementation with pUHRX245 from JXOIII genomic DNA library and by pUHRS138 from RS105 genomic DNA library, respectively. Subcloning of a 38.6 kb hrp fragment insert in pUHRX245 and a 39.3 kb insert in pUHRS138 revealed that a 3.3 kb Sac Ⅰ fragment from pUHRX245 and a 4.5 kb Bam HⅠ Kpn Ⅰ fragment from pUHRS138 were the minimal functional portions required for restoration of the ability of Xooc hrp mutants to induce HR on tobacco and cause disease on rice. The disease symptom caused by the conjugant (M1005 plus 3.3 kb) on rice was similar to that caused by the wild type of Xooc. It suggests that the two fragments contain the same hrp gene(s) and are responsible reciprocally for HR induction on tobacco and pathogenicity on rice.展开更多
