| Research Abstract |
We had a preliminary data which shows that a type III secretion effector, XopR, of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae is involved in pathogenicity on host rice and interacts with OsBIPP2C1 whose involvement in tobacco disease resistant had been reported. In this study, we could not clarify the interaction between the two proteins. However, it was suggested that XopR is responsible for the suppression of rice disease resistance. Also, we showed that OsBIPP2C has an enzymatic activity as a alkaline protein phosphatase 2C.
