Pathogenesis Related (PR) Proteins in Plants | Genetics

Pathogenesis related proteins are the class of proteins produced by plants against patho­gen attack. These proteins play a crucial role in plant defence against pathogen. Expression of PR genes is not only due to pathogen attack but also takes place by abiotic stress such as wounding, osmotic stress, UV light and oxidation stress. Several plant parts such as root flow­ers, [...]

Representation of High-Dose/Refuge Strategy | Genetics

In this article we will discuss about the representation of High-Dose/Refuge Strategy. Over the past one decade—researchers, government regulators, environmentalist and even private sectors have extensive debate over the occurrence of resistance to Bt crops and delay in the development of resistance process. In this context one of the promosing strategies is the high dose/refuge resistance management. This strategy has [...]

Bacterial Resistance in Plants | Genetics

In this article we will discuss about the bacterial resistance in plants. T4 Lysozyme: Several bacterial pathogens are responsible for enormous losses in cultivated and stored crops. Therefore, protection of plants from pathogenic bacteria is also a primary concern among plant scientists. Genetic engineering offers some good protection against bacterial attack. In one of the classic case studies, a novel [...]
