Overexpression of tomato polyphenol oxidase increases resistance to common cutworm

2008-04-01

Abstract excerpt

Polyphenol oxidases (PPOs), which catalyze the oxidation of phenolics to quinones, have been reported to confer resistance to Pseudomonas syringae and are thought to be involved in insect resistance. To assess the impact of PPO expression on resistance to the common cutworm (Spodoptera litura (F.)) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), we used transgenic tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) plants constitutively expressing...
