Abstract excerpt
Rosellinia necatrix is a fungus that infects a wide range of host plants and ruins a variety of commercially important crops. DNA fragments can be introduced into R. necatrix using conventional protoplast-PEG transformation and genome-integrating vectors; however, transformation efficiency with this strategy is quite low. Therefore, to establish a more effective transformation system for the studies of R....
