Genomic Resources and Tools for Gene Function Analysis in Potato
Figure 1
N. benthamiana plants, noninoculated
(a), inoculated with pGR106::PDS to silence endogenous phytoene desaturase
resulting in photo bleaching of leaves (b) and overexpressing GFP via a
pGR106::GFP construct—viewed under UV light to show expression of
GFP (c). Overexpression and coinfiltration of virulent Avr3a KI and avirulent
Avr3a EM with the potato R gene R3a are shown in (d). Naturally occurring PVX
resistance in S. papita (e) and the recognition
of virulent Avr3a KI and avirulent Avr3a EM alleles but not from tdT, used as a
control, in S. chacoense (f).
