Abstract

Bacterial leaf streak, caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola, is an important disease of rice. Transposon-mediated mutational analysis of the pathogen using a quantitative assay revealed candidate virulence factors including genes involved in pathogenesis in other phytopathogenic bacteria, virulence factors of animal pathogens, and genes not previously associated with virulence.
