Tobacco leaf discs were genetically transformed with an Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain harbouring pBIC35NP1. Northern blot analysis showed that the defensin NP1 expression cassette was normally transcribed in transgenic plants. Resistance tests demonstrated that expression of native defensin NP1 can confer partial resistance to the bacterial wilt pathogen, Ralstonia solanacearum.展开更多
