Apoplastic Extracts from a Transgenic Wheat Line Exhibiting Lesion-Mimic Phenotype Have Multiple Pathogenesis-Related Proteins That Are Antifungal

A transgenic wheat line constitutively expressing genes encoding a class IV acidic chitinase and an acidic β-1,3-glucanase, showed significant delay in spread of Fusarium head blight (scab) disease under greenhouse conditions. In an earlier work, we observed a lesion-mimic phenotype in this transgen...
