Abstract/Contents: | "Many fungi pathogenic on Arabidopsis have been identified and a wealth of information exists on the defense responses deployed by the host. However, none of these pathogens have been characterized with respect to the molecular basis of their pathogenicity on Arabidopsis. We applied an insertional mutagenesis technique based on Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation to identify Fusarium oxysporum genes, important for pathogenicity on Arabidopsis. Conidia of a F. oxysporum isolate, highly virulent on Arabidopsis, were transformed and a frequency approximating to 300 transformants per 106 conidia was attained. The majority of transformants possessed a single T-DNA copy. Transformants were assayed for change-of-virulence on the most susceptible ecotype, Cape Verde. A TAIL-PCR strategy was employed to isolate those DNA fragments flanking T-DNA. The transformation protocol and results of the mutant screening will be presented." |
