In order to prove this viewpoint, we amplified the coding region of the glucose oxidase (GO) gene from Aspergillus nigervia PCR and fused it to the pathogen-inducible promoter, Prp1-1. The chimeric gene was cloned into a plant expression vector and conjugated into Agrobacterium. Twenty-three transgenic potato plants were obtained by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. The integration of GO gene was confirmed by Southern hybridization and the GO gene expression was identified with Kl-starch color reaction. Phytophthora infestans inoculation revealed that the expression of the chimeric transgene was induced by pathogen infection. Most of the transgenic plants exhibited various degrees of enhanced disease resistance. Four of them had lesion sizes reduced to less than half of the non-transgenic展开更多
