Overexpression of Pti5 in Tomato Potentiates Pathogen-Induced Defense Gene Expression and Enhances Disease Resistance to Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato

The tomato Pti5 gene encodes a pathogen-inducible ethylene response element-binding protein-like transcription factor that interacts with the disease resistance gene product Pto. Overexpression of Pti5 or Pti5-VP16, a translational fusion with a constitutive transcriptional activation domain, in tom...
