Constitutive expression of an inducible beta-1,3-glucanase in alfalfa reduces disease severity caused by the oomycete pathogenPhytophthora megasperma f. spmedicaginis, but does not reduce disease severity of chitin-containing fungi.

Abstract excerpt
cDNA sequences coding for an acidic glucanase (Aglul) that is expressed in elicited alfalfa cell suspension cultures, and a rice basic chitinase (RCH10) that is induced by elicitor and wounding, were placed into constitutive expression cassettes under control of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter or 35S enhancer sequences, and introduced in alfalfa plants of the regenerable cultivar Regen SY by Agrobacteriu...
