Abstract excerpt
SUMMARY The fungal pathogen Sclerotinia sclerotiorum infects a broad range of dicotyledonous plant species and causes stem rot in Brassica napus. To elucidate the mechanisms underlying the defence response, the patterns of gene expression in the partially resistant B. napus cultivar ZhongYou 821 (ZY821) and the susceptible cultivar Westar were studied using a B. napus oligonucleotide microarray. Although maximum...
