| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Bacteria continuously sense chemical concentrations around cells and swim to their favorite sites or away from unfavorable sites. This behavioral responses are called chemotaxis. Ralstonia solanacearum, a soil-borne plant pathogen, locates its host plants by moving in soil. Chemotaxis is thought to have an important role in this early stage of infection by R. solanacearum. In this study, we have investigated molecular biology of R. solanacearum chemotaxis to understand how it locates rhizosphere of host plants and how chemotaxis is involved in plant infection. Methyl bromide is effective for controlling R. solanacearum infection, but its usage have been banned because it is a very strong ozone-depleting substance. It is highly expected that this study provides information valuable to establish environmentally-friendly controlling method of R. solanacearum wilt, which is independent on methyl bromide.
