| Research Abstract |
Bacterial non-methylated DNA was identified as one of microbe/pathogen-associated molecular patterns(MAMP/PAMP). We investigated harpin recognition system in tobacco plant as one of molecular patterns and found that an ancestor of Pseudomonas syringae pv. tabaci might have disrupted harpin gene, hrpZ by an internal deletion to evade tobacco defenses and confer the ability to cause disease in tobacco plants. Although we screened the receptor genes for bacterial DNA and/or harpin protein in Arabidopsis thaliana, the corresponding mutant lines were not identified.
