Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

The genetic engineering for plant resistance against fungal diseases has been promoted by the molecular genetic studies of plant-pathogen interactions in last few years. This article reviewed the progress made in this aspect. The genes utilized included that of pathogenesis rlated proteins (PRPs), thaumatin-like proteins (TLPs), ribosome inactivation proteins (RIPs), plant defensins, plant thonins, phytoalexin, Inhibitor of fungal hydrolysase, mediating production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and hypersensitive response (HR).
