Characterization of two class II chitinase genes from peanut and expression studies in transgenic tobacco plants by Jan-Wolfhard Kellmann; Tatjana Kleinow; Kerstin Engelhardt; Christina Philipp; Dorothee Wegener; Jeff Schell; Peter H. Schreier is a Agricultural and Biological Sciences article available to read on EtoBox.

What is Characterization of two class II chitinase genes from peanut and expression studies in transgenic tobacco plants about?

Two different genes encoding class II chitinases from peanut (Arachis hypogaea L. cv. NC4), A.h.Chi2;l and A.h.Chi2;2, have been cloned. In peanut cell suspension cultures, mRNA levels of A.h.Chi2;2 increased after ethylene or salicylate treatment and in the presence of conidia from Botrytis cinerea. The second gene, A.h. Chi2;l, was only expressed after treatment with the fungal spores. Transgenic tobacco plants containing the complete peanut A.h. Chi2;1 gene exhibited essentially the same expression pattern in leaves as observed in peanut cell cultures. Expression characteristics of transgenic tobacco carrying a promoter-GU S fusion of A.h. Chi2;l are described.
