 Indirectly – the pathovars that induced //Bs2//-mediated hypersensitivity were classified as having AvrBs2 activity (Kearney & Staskawicz, 1990). Indirectly – the pathovars that induced //Bs2//-mediated hypersensitivity were classified as having AvrBs2 activity (Kearney & Staskawicz, 1990).

-AvrBs2 fused to the calmodulin-activated adenylate cyclase domain was shown to translocate into plant cells (cytosol), detected through rise of cAMP levels inside the plant tissue. The //hrpF//  <sup>-</sup>   mutant was used as a negative control to prove the translocation process. Further it was shown that AvrBs2 contains two N-terminal secretion and translocation signals: first for secretion and the second for enhancing translocation (Casper-Lindley //et al//., 2002). +AvrBs2 fused to the calmodulin-activated adenylate cyclase domain was shown to translocate into plant cells (cytosol), detected through rise of cAMP levels inside the plant tissue.

-qRT-PCR revealed that transcript levels of 15 out of 18 tested non-TAL effector genes (as well as the regulatory genes //hrpG//  and //hrpX//), including //avrBs2//, were significantly reduced in the //Xanthomonas oryzae//  pv. //oryzae//  Δ//xrvC//  mutant compared with those in the wild-type strain PXO99<sup>A</sup>   (Liu //et al//., 2016). +qRT-PCR revealed that transcript levels of 15 out of 18 tested non-TAL effector genes (as well as the regulatory genes //hrpG// and //hrpX//), including //avrBs2//, were significantly reduced in the //Xanthomonas oryzae// pv. //oryzae// Δ//xrvC// mutant compared with those in the wild-type strain PXO99<sup>A</sup>  (Liu //et al//., 2016).

   * Induced expression of AvrBs2 in transgenic cell cultures was shown to dramatically suppress flg22-induced and chitin-induced immune responses, such as ROS burst and PR gene expression (Li //et al//., 2015).   * Induced expression of AvrBs2 in transgenic cell cultures was shown to dramatically suppress flg22-induced and chitin-induced immune responses, such as ROS burst and PR gene expression (Li //et al//., 2015).
   * A ∆//xopK//  mutant strain of //Xanthomonas phaseoli//  pv. //manihotis//  (aka //Xanthomonas axonopodis//  pv. //manihotis//) showed reduced growth in planta and delayed spread through the vasculature system of cassava. Moreover, the ∆avrBs2 mutant strain exhibited reduced water-soaking symptoms at the site of inoculation (Mutka //et al.//, 2016).   * A ∆//xopK//  mutant strain of //Xanthomonas phaseoli//  pv. //manihotis//  (aka //Xanthomonas axonopodis//  pv. //manihotis//) showed reduced growth in planta and delayed spread through the vasculature system of cassava. Moreover, the ∆avrBs2 mutant strain exhibited reduced water-soaking symptoms at the site of inoculation (Mutka //et al.//, 2016).
 +  * //Agrobacterium//-mediated transient expression of both XopQ and XopX in rice cells resulted in induction of rice immune responses, which were not observed when either protein was individually expressed. A screen for //Xanthomonas//  effectors which can suppress XopQ-XopX induced rice immune responses, led to the identification of five effectors, namely XopU, XopV, XopP, XopG and AvrBs2, that could individually suppress these immune responses. These results suggest a complex interplay of //Xanthomonas//  T3SS effectors in suppression of both pathogen-triggered immunity and effector-triggered immunity to promote virulence on rice (Deb //et al.//, 2020).
