  • Patent number: 10900051
    Abstract: The ReXEG1 gene for improving plant disease resistance has a nucleotide sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO. 1, and encodes a product having an amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO. 3. It has a key role in resistance of tobacco to Phytophthora pathogens. Overexpression of this gene significantly promotes the resistance of tobacco to various Phytophthora species, and is a desirable gene for enhancing the plant disease resistance. The gene is allowed to express in tobacco by genetic transformation to improve resistance to various pathogens to tobacco, thereby improving the disease resistance of crops in field.
