Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of the MLO gene family reveal a candidate gene associated with powdery mildew susceptibility in bitter gourd (Momordica charantia)
2021-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Powdery mildew (PM), caused by Podosphaera xanthii, is one of the most serious disease in bitter gourd (Momordica charantia). Specific members of the Mildew Locus O (MLO) gene family act as susceptibility factors by recognizing PM pathogens and the corresponding loss-of-function mutations confer broad-spectrum durable host resistance. However, the potential PM-susceptibility genes in bitter gourd have not been ide...
