Genetic engineering of plants to enhance resistance to fungal pathogens--a review of progress and future prospects
2001-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Recent applications of techniques in plant molecular biology and biotechnology to the study of host-pathogen interactions have resulted in the identification and cloning of numerous genes involved in the defense responses of plants following pathogen infection. These include: genes that express proteins, peptides, or antimicrobial compounds that are directly toxic to pathogens or that reduce their growth in situ;...
