METHOD FOR INCREASING PATHOGEN RESISTANCE IN TRANSGENIC PLANTS BY MEANS OF EXPRESSION OF A PEROXIDASE

摘要

: The present invention relates to a method for the production of transgenic plants and/or plant cells, respectively, with increased pathogen resistance, characterized in that a DNA sequence, which encodes a protein with the activity of a peroxidase, is inserted into the plant and expressed therein. The invention at hand also relates to the use of nucleic acids encoding a peroxidase for the production of transgenic plants, or plant cells, respectively, with increased pathogen resistance. Further, the invention at hand relates to nucleic acid sequences encoding a peroxidase of barley.
