Overexpression of a chitinase gene PbChia1 from Plasmodiophora brassicae increases broad spectrum disease resistance
2022-10-27
Abstract excerpt
Chitinase plays an important role in plant resistance against chitin containing pathogens by degrading chitin. Clubroot, caused by Plasmodiophora brassicae, is a major disease in cruciferous crops worldwide, including vegetable and rapeseed. Chitin is the main component of P. brassicae spore cell walls, chitinases can enhance the plant’s defense system as they act on chitin. However, the function of chitinases i...
