Xanthomonas oryzaepv.oryzicolais anX. oryzaepathovar that causes bacterial leaf streak in rice. In this study, we performed functional characterization of a nine-genehisoperon inX. oryzaepv.oryzicola. Sequence analysis indicates that this operon is highly conserved inXanthomonasspp. Auxotrophic assays confirmed that thehisoperon was involved in histidine biosynthesis. We found that two genes within this operon,trpRandhisB, were required for virulence and bacterial growth in planta. Further research revealed thattrpRandhisBplay different roles inX. oryzaepv.oryzicola. ThetrpRacts as a transcriptional repressor and could negatively regulate the expression ofhisG, -D, -C, -B, -H, -A, and -F.hisB, which encodes a bifunctional enzyme implicated in histidine biosynthesis, was shown to be required for xanthomonadin production inX. oryzaepv.oryzicola. The disruption ofhisBreduced the transcriptional expression of five known shikimate pathway-related genesxanB2,aroE,aroA,aroC, andaroK. We found that thehisoperon inX. oryzaepv.oryzicolais not involved in hypersensitive response in nonhost tobacco plants. Collectively, our results revealed that two genes in histidine biosynthesis operon play an important role in the pathogenicity ofX. oryzaepv.oryzicolaRs105.
