Chitinase CHIT36 from Trichoderma harzianum Enhances Resistance of Transgenic Carrot to Fungal Pathogens
2008-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Microbial endochitinase CHIT36 is one of the lytic enzymes secreted by Trichoderma harzianum that exhibits antifungal activity in vitro. To evaluate its activity when expressed in planta, a plasmid containing chit36 gene under the control of CaMV 35S promoter and the nptII selection gene were introduced into polyethylene glycol (PEG)-treated carrot (Daucus carota L.) protoplasts. The transgenic plants expressing C...
