GhHb1: a nonsymbiotic hemoglobin gene of cotton responsive to infection by Verticillium dahliae.

Abstract excerpt

Verticillium wilt of cotton is a widespread and destructive disease that is caused by the fungus pathogen Verticillium dahliae. Although no cotton cultivar is immune to the disease, some genotypes exhibit superior wilt tolerance. To gain an insight into the molecular mechanisms responsible for wilt tolerance, we employed the method of suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) to isolate genes whose expression...
