Patent

CA 2402136

Homologues of the Arabidopsis NIM1 gene, which is involved in the signal transduction cascade leading to systemic acquired resistance (SAR), are isolated from monocotyledonous crops such as Triticum aestivum (wheat) and Oryza sativa (rice). The invention further concerns transformation vectors and processes for expressing the monocotyledonous NIM1 homologues in transgenic plants to increase SAR gene expression and enhance broad spectrum disease resistance.

Cette invention a trait à des homologues du gène NIM1 Arabidopsis participant à la cascade de transduction de signal assurant une résistance systémique acquise (SAR). Ces homologues sont isolés de plantes monocotylédonées cultivées, notamment Triticum aestivum (froment) et Oryza sativa (riz). L'invention concerne également des vecteurs de transformation et des processus permettant d'exprimer les homologues monocotylédonés de NIM1 dans des végétaux transgéniques afin d'accroître l'expression du gène de SAR et d'élargir le large spectre de résistance aux maladies.
