Expression of the Talaromyces flavus glucose oxidase gene in cotton and tobacco reduces fungal infection, but is also phytotoxic
1999-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Glucose oxidase secreted by the fungus Talaromyces flavus generates, in the presence of glucose, hydrogen peroxide that is toxic to phytopathogenic fungi responsible for economically important diseases in many crops. A glucose oxidase gene from T. flavus, was modified with a carrot extensin signal peptide and fused to either a constitutive or root-specific plant promoter. T1 tobacco plants expressing the enzyme co...
