Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc) is the causal agent of citrus bacterial canker (CBC), one of the most devastating citrus diseases. Most commercial citrus varieties are susceptible to CBC. However, some citrus varieties and wild citrus germplasms are CBC resistant and are promising in genetic increases in citrus resistance against CBC. We aimed to evaluate citrus germplasms for resistance against CBC. First, we developed a rapid evaluation method based on enhanced yellow fluorescent protein (eYFP)-labeled Xcc. The results demonstrated that eYFP does not affect the growth and virulence of Xcc. Xcc-eYFP allows measurement of bacterial titers but is more efficient and rapid than the plate colony counting method. Next, we evaluated citrus germplasms collected in China. Based on symptoms and bacterial titers, we identified that two citrus germplasms ('Ichang' papeda and 'Huapi' kumquat) are resistant, whereas eight citrus germplasms ('Chongyi' wild mandarin, 'Mangshan' wild mandarin, 'Ledong' kumquat, 'Dali' citron, 'Yiliang' citron, 'Longyan' kumquat, 'Bawang' kumquat, and 'Daoxian' wild mandarin) are tolerant. In summary, we have developed a rapid evaluation method to test the resistance of citrus plants against CBC. This method was successfully used to identify two highly canker-resistant citrus germplasms and eight citrus germplasms with canker tolerance. These results could be leveraged in traditional breeding contexts or be used to identify canker resistance genes to increase the disease resistance of commercial citrus varieties via biotechnological approaches.
