Pto mutants differentially activate Prf-dependent, avrPto-independent resistance and gene-for-gene resistance.
Pto confers disease resistance to Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato carrying the cognate avrPto gene. Overexpression of Pto under the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter activates spontaneous lesions and confers disease resistance in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) plants in the absence of avrPto. Here, we show that these AvrPto-independent defenses require a functional Prf gene. Several Pto-in...
متن کاملOverexpression of NPR1 in Brassica juncea Confers Broad Spectrum Resistance to Fungal Pathogens
Brassica juncea (Indian mustard) is a commercially important oil seed crop, which is highly affected by many biotic stresses. Among them, Alternaria leaf blight and powdery mildew are the most devastating diseases leading to huge yield losses in B. juncea around the world. In this regard, genetic engineering is a promising tool that may possibly allow us to enhance the B. juncea disease resista...
متن کاملOverexpression of OATP1B3 Confers Apoptotic Resistance
Organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B3 (OATP1B3, SLCO1B3) is normally expressed in hepatocytes. In this study, we showed frequent overexpression of OATP1B3 in colorectal adenocarcinomas. Quantitative reverse transcription-PCR analysis of 17 colon tumors indicated tumoral overexpression of OATP1B3 by f100-fold, compared with 20 normal colon samples (P < 0.0001). Using immunohistochemistry on...
متن کاملExpression of 35S::Pto globally activates defense-related genes in tomato plants.
The tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) resistance gene Pto confers resistance to the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato carrying the avirulent gene avrPto. Overexpressing Pto under the control of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter constitutively activates defense responses in the absence of pathogen infection and nonspecifically enhances disease resistance. To elucidate the ...
متن کاملOverexpression of the disease resistance gene Pto in tomato induces gene expression changes similar to immune responses in human and fruitfly.
The Pto gene encodes a serine/threonine protein kinase that confers resistance in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) to Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato strains that express the type III effector protein AvrPto. Constitutive overexpression of Pto in tomato, in the absence of AvrPto, activates defense responses and confers resistance to several diverse bacterial and fungal plant pathogens. We have u...
