摘要: Homologues of the Arabidopsis NIM1 gene, which is involved in signal transduction cascade leading to systemic acquired resistance (SAR), are isolated from Nicotiana tabacum (tobacco), Lycopersicon esculentum (tomato), Brassica napus (oilseed rape), thaliana, Beta vulgaris (sugarbeet), Helianthus annuus (sunflower), and Solanum tuberosum (potato). The invention further concerns transformation vectors processes for expressing homologues transgenic plants increase SAR gene expression enhance broad spectrum disease resistance.
