Increased tolerance to Phytophthora citrophthora in transgenic orange plants constitutively expressing a tomato pathogenesis related protein PR-5
2001-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Phytophthora citrophthora is the most widely spread oomycete plant pathogen over all the citrus growing areas and represents one of the major causes of crop losses. Constitutive over-expression of genes encoding proteins involved in plant defence mechanisms to disease is one of the strategies proposed to increase plant tolerance to oomycete and fungal pathogens. P23 (PR-5), a 23-kDa pathogenesis-related protein si...
