STEIP GENE ENHANCING RESISTANCE TO BACTERIAL WILT AND USE THEREOF

摘要

PURPOSE: A transgenic plant which is prepared by transforming with a bacterial wilt resistant gene is provided to grow a variety with bacterial wilt resistance and to remarkably improve productivity of plants, especially solanaceae plants. CONSTITUTION: A method for improving bacterial wilt resistance in a plant comprises a step of increasing intracellular level of a polypeptide with an amino acid sequence of sequence number 2. The method also comprises a step of overexpressing the polypeptide. A gene encoding the polypeptide has a base sequence of sequence number 1. A method for producing a plant with resistance to bacterial wilt comprises a step of transforming a recombinant expression vector containing a gene encoding the polypeptide into a plant.
