Resistance reactions of leaves and tubers of rolC transgenic tetraploid potato to bacterial and fungal pathogens. Correlation with sugar, starch and chlorophyll content
1993-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Infection of plants with Agrobacterium rhizogenes results in the hairy root disease. Four different loci (rolA, B, C, D), located on the TL-DNA of the Ri plasmid are involved in the establishment of this disease. When the rolC gene was expressed alone in tetraploid potato plants, the transgenic plants displayed severe phenotypic and physiological alterations compared to untransformed controls. Therefore we have te...
