Their virulence relies on type III secretion system (T3SS) effectors that manipulate host cells, but the functions of many effectors remain unknown. A recent report demonstrated that the AvrBs2 effector from the rice pathogen\n                    <jats:italic>Xanthomonas oryzae<\/jats:italic>\n                    pv.\n                    <jats:italic>oryzicola<\/jats:italic>\n                    manipulates host metabolism to synthesize a unique metabolite, xanthosan, from host sugars. The bacteria then import and utilize this metabolite\n                    <jats:italic>via<\/jats:italic>\n                    specific transporters. Notably, transgenic rice plants engineered to degrade this metabolite exhibited strong resistance to the pathogen. Another recent study revealed that the PthA4 effector from the citrus pathogen\n                    <jats:italic>Xanthomonas citri<\/jats:italic>\n                    pv.\n                    <jats:italic>citri<\/jats:italic>\n                    activates the host gene\n                    <jats:italic>CsLOB1<\/jats:italic>\n                    , inducing cell wall degradation. The released sugars, particularly xylose, activate bacterial nutrient uptake systems, creating a feed\u2010forward loop that promotes infection. Specifically, AvrBs2 generates monosaccharide building blocks for the cell wall, whereas PthA4 depolymerizes existing cell walls, likely by activating a fruit\u2010ripening program, highlighting that virulence emerges from the interplay between host manipulation and bacterial physiology. These discoveries establish nutrient hijacking as a conserved virulence mechanism in\n                    <jats:italic>Xanthomonas<\/jats:italic>\n                    and provide new targets for sustainable crop protection. \u00a9 2026 Society of Chemical Industry.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ps.71034","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,17]],"date-time":"2026-06-17T05:07:01Z","timestamp":1781672821000},"page":"9373-9376","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["<i>Xanthomonas<\/i>\n                    effectors: nutritional hijacking for a long running battle"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"82","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6761-2103","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Xian","family":"Chen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Plant Protection, Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences  Nanjing PR China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4251-4670","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Pedro","family":"Laborda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Life Sciences, Nantong University  Nantong PR China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Oluwatoyin Oluwakemi","family":"Afolabi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Laboratory of Phytopathology, Department of Plants and Crops, Faculty of Bioscience Engineering Ghent University  Ghent Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Baodian","family":"Guo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Plant Protection, Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences  Nanjing PR China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yancun","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Plant Protection, Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences  Nanjing PR China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41579-020-0361-8"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1042\/EBC20220128"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/microbiolspec.VMBF-0012-2015"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nrmicro2762"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.tim.2021.10.007"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41579-022-00710-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1126\/science.ady8325"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1126\/science.adz9239"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/nar\/gkae973"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1094\/MPMI-3-041"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/mpp.12844"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1073\/pnas.1313271111"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.micres.2025.128220"}],"container-title":["Pest Management Science"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/scijournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/ps.71034","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/scijournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1002\/ps.71034","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/scijournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/ps.71034","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,11]],"date-time":"2026-09-11T23:42:01Z","timestamp":1789170121000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/scijournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/ps.71034"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,16]]},"references-count":13,"journal-issue":{"issue":"10","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026,10]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/ps.71034"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/ps.71034","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["1526-498X","1526-4998"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1526-498X","type":"print"},{"value":"1526-4998","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,6,16]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2026-02-25","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2026-06-03","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2026-06-16","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
