AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Soluble exopolysaccharide is a major virulence factor produced by the plant pathogen . Its massive production during plant infection is associated with the arrest of water flow in xylem vessels leading eventually to plant death. The composition of this heavy macromolecule includes mainly N-acetylgalactosamine. Here we describe a colorimetric method for quantitative determination of the soluble exopolysaccharide present in culture supernatant of .

subsp. () possesses a -specific uter embrane rotein XAC1347 (OMP) that exerts a role in the expression of the type III secretion system for pathogenicity. In this study, we reported that OMP was required for salt stress tolerance and cell membrane integrity, as well as the expression of the genes for the production of extracellular polysaccharides.

The fungus Beauveria felina is often classified as one of the so-called good biocontrol agents. However, no information is available about the growth of this entomopathogenic fungus in the presence of other endophytic fungi, which are usually found in plant tissues. Effects of fungal interactions vary from inhibiting the activity of a biocontrol agent to stimulating its effect on the targeted pathogen.

The development of rapeseed with high resistance against the pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is impeded by the lack of effective resistance resources within host species. Unraveling the molecular basis of nonhost resistance (NHR) holds substantial value for resistance improvement in crops. In the present study, small RNA sequencing and transcriptome sequencing were carried out between rice (a nonhost species of S.
