Localization of XA27∷GFP. XA27 fused to GFP is found associated with cell plasmalemma and cell wall when cells are plasmolyzed (top). A GFP control is shown at bottom. A complete description of the approach is provided by Wu et al. (2008). P, Plasmolyzed plant cell. Arrows indicate adjoining plant cell wall. Photographs are courtesy of Z. Yin.

Prototypic TAL effector. Each TAL effector contains a central repetitive region of varying numbers of 34 amino acid repeat units (white boxes). The C-terminal region contains three nuclear localization signal motifs (NLS [A, B, and C]) and an acidic activation domain (AD).

Diverse host responses to Xoo challenge in rice. Leaves were inoculated with water or Xoo by needleless syringe. Leaf 1, Mock inoculation; leaf 2, response to T3SS nonpathogenic mutant of PXO99A; leaf 3, recessive R gene response (note the lack of streaking up and down the leaf blade); leaf 4, fully susceptible response (wild-type strain); leaf 5, PXO99A (avrXa7; response to dominant R gene Xa7). Photographs were taken with back lighting, and yellow zones are indicative of water soaking.

Figure 5.
Genomic positions of TAL effector genes in two strains of Xoo. Genes are labeled and identified by biological function and name, where assigned (adapted from Salzberg et al. [2008] and Ochiai et al. [2005]). The dashed line indicates the location of the PXO99A TAL effector gene 9e in MAFF3113018. Apostrophes after gene letters indicate truncated genes. Colored boxes indicate gene clusters.
