Plant vascular diseases are tissue-specific systemic infections provoked by bacterial and fungal pathogens adapted to thrive in the xylem vessels. A recent report by Gluck-Thaler et al. reveals that, in the phytopathogenic bacterium Xanthomonas, the switch from non-vascular to vascular pathogenesis is determined by a single gene encoding a plant cell wall-degrading hydrolase.
植物血管疾病是由适应在木质部中生长的细菌和真菌病原体引起的组织特异性系统性感染。最近由 Gluck-Thaler 等人发表的一份报告揭示,在植物病原菌黄单胞菌中,从非血管到血管病理发生的转变由单个基因决定,该基因编码一种植物细胞壁降解水解酶。
