Abstract excerpt
AIMS: The primary objective of this study was to determine the role of 6-phosphogluconate dehydratase in root colonization and the induction of systemic resistance by the rhizobacterium, Pseudomonas chlororaphis O6. METHODS AND RESULTS: The edd gene encoding for 6-phosphogluconate dehydratase, which is one of the key enzymes in glucose utilization, was cloned. Transcription of the gene was higher in medium...
