Inactivation of transgenes in Phytophthora infestans is not associated with their deletion, methylation, or mutation.

Abstract excerpt

The mitotic and meiotic stabilities of transgenes were evaluated in the oomycete, Phytophthora infestans. Genes encoding beta-glucuronidase (GUS), neomycin phosphotransferase (NPT) and hygromycin phosphotransferase (HPT), fused to one of six promoters from P. infestans or other oomycetes, were usually stably expressed during continued asexual culture and transmitted to progeny. However, the activity of these...
