Cloning and Disruption of pgx4 Encoding an In Planta Expressed Exopolygalacturonase from Fusarium oxysporum

Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici, the causal agent of tomato vascular wilt, produces an array of pectinolytic enzymes, including at least two exo-α1,4-polygalac-turonases (exoPGs). A gene encoding an exoPG, pgx4, was isolated with degenerate polymerase chain reaction primers derived from amino...
