Abstract：In recent years, drug resistance of bacteria causing diseases on cucurbits and vegetables has been increasingly re?ported which caused huge difficluties in cucurbit and vegetable prevention. Resistance-nodulation-division family (RND) is one of the most important efflux pump family in cucurbit and vegetable pathogenic bacteria, which is closely related to bacte?ria multidrug resistance and interactions between pathogenic bacteria and plants. We describe structures and functions of RND efflux pumps, relationships between efflux pumps and bacterial/plant interactions as well as the relevant research of ef?flux pump inhibitors (EPIS). This review will provide references for further studies on drug resistance of cucurbit and vegeta?ble pathogenic bacteria.
