Assessment of root-specific promoters in banana and tobacco and identification of a banana TIP2 promoter with strong root activity
Genetic modification is one possible strategy to generate bananas (Musa spp.) with resistance to the soil-borne pathogen causing Fusarium wilt. The availability of banana root-specific promoters to target transgene expression to the sites of infection would be beneficial. We have assessed 18 promote...
