Transgenic <em>Citrus sinensis</em> Expressing the Pepper <em>Bs2</em> <em>R</em>-Gene Shows Broad Transcriptional Activation of Defense Responses to Citrus Canker
2025-11-19
Abstract excerpt
The pepper Bs2 resistance gene confers resistance to susceptible Solanaceae plants against pathogenic strains of Xanthomonas campestris pv. vesicatoria carrying the avrBs2 avirulence gene. Previously, we generated Bs2-transgenic Citrus sinensis plants that exhibited enhanced resistance to citrus canker caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc), although the underlying mechanisms remained unknown. To elucidate...
