Small non-coding RNAs in plant-pathogenic Xanthomonas spp

The infection and bacterial multiplication in the plant tissue depends on the type III secretion system and other virulence determinants.

Zusammenfassung: | The genus Xanthomonas comprises a large group of plant-pathogenic bacteria. The infection and bacterial multiplication in the plant tissue depends on the type III secretion system and other virulence determinants. Recent studies revealed that bacterial virulence is also controlled at the post-transcriptional level by small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs). In this review, we highlight our current knowledge about sRNAs and RNA-binding proteins in Xanthomonas species. |
