Abstract
After infiltration into leaves of Arabidopsis thaliana, Xanthomonas campestris pathovar campestris grew and caused symptoms similar to those incited in Brassica under similar conditions. X.c campestris pathovars which do not infect crucifers and mutants of X.c campestris altered in pathogenicity to Brassica failed to grow and give symptoms in A thaliana. A survey of the interaction of many A. thaliana ecotypes with X.c. campestris wild type strains revealed some genetic variation for interaction phenotype (compatibility). In one case a gene-for-gene interaction involving a single dominant plant resistance locus and a bacterial avirulence gene was demonstrated. By screening M2 plants derived from mutagenised seed some mutants altered in response to X.c. campestris were identified.
