Abstract excerpt
We previously identified a locus that regulates production of polygalacturonase (PG), an extracellular plant cell wall-degrading enzyme important in bacterial wilt of plants caused by Ralstonia (Pseudomonas) solanacearum. The DNA sequence of this locus, called pehSR, was determined and two consecutive open reading frames (ORFs) of 1,905 and 1,680 bp were identified. The amino acid sequences predicted to be...
