Cloning and Characterization of an Esophageal-Gland-Specific Pectate Lyase from the Root-Knot Nematode Meloidogyne javanica
Root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne javanica) are obligate sedentary endoparasites that must penetrate the host root to initiate their life cycle. Many enzymes are secreted by the nematode to facilitate host penetration; required enzymes may include pectate lyases and cellulases. Using differential scr...
