Tobacco PR-2d promoter is induced in transgenic cucumber in response to biotic and abiotic stimuli

Transcriptome Analyses in Different Cucumber Cultivars Provide Novel Insights into Drought Stress Responses

“…Cucumber ( Cucumis sativus L.), one of the most important vegetable crops in Cucurbitaceae, is originally from the southern Himalayas and shows a preference for warm and moist environment [ 11 ]. Previous studies about cucumber resistance on drought have been carried out in different aspects [ 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ]. Carbon monoxide (CO) is involved in hydrogen gas (H 2 )-induced adventitious root development under stimulated drought stress and alleviates oxidative damage by altering relative physiological index [ 12 ].…”

“…Exogenously applied hydrogen peroxide could considerably enhance the cucumber drought resistance by increasing the plant’s antioxidative defense system and its capacity for osmotic adjustment [ 14 ]. Tobacco PR-2d promoter/ uidA (GUS) gene is induced in transgenic cucumber and improves the response to biotic and abiotic stimuli [ 15 ].…”

Next generation sequencing and omics in cucumber ( Cucumis sativus L.) breeding directed research

“…Many efforts in Cucurbitaceae plant have been reported that have focused on the development and ripening process [3][4][5][6], phloem transport [7][8][9], disease resistance [6,10], cold tolerance [11][12][13][14] fruit quality traits [15][16][17][18] and other characters, that results could be useful in breeding programs.…”

Fungal pathogen protection in transgenic lettuce by expression of a apoptosis related Bcl-2 gene

“…본 실 험에서 사용된 Bcl-2 family에 속하는 유전자는 apoptosis 의 조절에 관여하고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다 (Dickman et al 2001;Li et al 2004;Xu et al 2004). 나아가 이 유전자 들은 식물의 발달과정에 중요한 역할을 하며 특히 세균, 곰팡이 및 바이러스와 같은 병원균과 식물체간의 상호 기작에 크게 관여하는 것으로 보고되고 있다 (Dangl and Jones 2001;Yin et al 2004;Xu et al 2004 Agrobacterium. tumefacience GV3101과 공동배양 한 후, 100 mg/L kanamycin과 300 mg/L lilacillin이 첨가된 선발배지에 치상하여 선발하였다.…”
