This invention provides a novel method to confer disease resistance to plants. Plant plastids are transformed using a plastid vector which contains heterologous DNA sequences coding for a cytotoxic antimicrobial peptide. Transgenic plants are capable of fighting off phytopathogenic bacterial infection.
Cette invention porte sur un nouveau procédé destiné à conférer aux plantes une résistance aux maladies. Les plastides des plantes sont transformés au moyen d'un vecteur plastidique contenant des séquences d'ADN hétérologues codant pour un peptide antimicrobien cytotoxique. Les plantes transgéniques sont capables de lutter contre les infections imputables aux bactéries phytopathogènes.
