Abstract excerpt
The Cercospora nicotianae SOR1 gene is required for resistance to singlet oxygen-generating photosensitizers. SOR1 was characterized in the wild-type and in five photosensitizer-sensitive mutant strains which are complemented to photosensitizer resistance by transformation with SOR1. Sequence analysis determined that three of the mutants contain SOR1 copies with mutations encoding substitutions in the...
