Abstract excerpt
Three constructs were used to study the expression of the avirulence gene Avr9 from the fungal tomato pathogen Cladosporium fulvum in plants. They include pAVIR1, pAVIR2 and pAVIR21, encoding the wild-type AVR9 protein and two hybrid AVR9 proteins containing the signal sequences of the pathogenesis-related proteins PR-S and PR-1a, respectively. Transgenic tobacco plants obtained with the three constructs showed a...
