Brassica carinata CIL1 mediates extracellular ROS production during auxin- and ABA-regulated lateral root development
In the plant cytoplasm signals from multiple sources interact to control development. Lateral root proliferation is controlled by the antagonistic action of the hormones auxin and abscisic acid (ABA). Auxin st...

Small scale functional genomics of the blackleg fungus, Leptosphaeria maculans: analysis of a 38 kb region
A small-scale, functional genomics approach was applied to Leptosphaeria maculans, the dothideomycete that causes blackleg disease of oilseed Brassicas. Analysis of 126 Expressed Sequence Tags identified a putati...

Comparison of the 5.8s rDNA and internal transcribed spacer sequences of isolates of Leptosphaeria maculans from different pathogenicity groups
The regions coding for the 5.8s rRNA and the flanking internal transcribed spacers (ITS1 and ITS2) from nine isolates of the blackleg pathogen Leptosphaeria maculans and one isolate of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum we...

Electrophoretic karyoty** of Leptosphaeria maculans differentiates highly virulent from weakly virulent isolates
Whole chromosomes from the fungal phytopathogen Leptosphaeria maculans were separated by transverse alternating field electrophoresis. The chromosome complements from several isolates of both highly and weakly vi...

Optimizing the expression of chimeric genes in plant cells
The Serratia marcescens chiA gene encodes a secreted chitinase activity which contributes to the fungal growth inhibition exhibited by this bacterium. The coding region from the chiA gene was fused to the promote...
