Expression of a rice chitinase gene in transgenic banana (‘gros michel’, aaa genome group) confers resistance to black leaf streak disease

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Transgenic banana et al. from the Laboratory of Tropical Crop Improvement have published the research: Expression of a rice chitinase gene in transgenic banana (‘Gros Michel’, AAA genome group) confers resistance to black leaf streak disease, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The aim of this study was twofold: firstly, the authors developed stable transformation of ‘Gros Michel' via highly embryogenic and regenerable cell suspension cultures; and secondly, the authors explored enhanced BLSD resistance in banana via genetic transformation with heterologous genes. Using the optimized Agrobacterium-mediated transformation system (Pérez Hernández et_al 2006 . . .
