Characterization and Expression of Plant Defense Genes in Peach and Tomato
The influence of three different agar concentrations, 0.8, 1.0, and 1.2%, on tomato transformation efficiency was examined. Cotyledons of Lycopersicon esculentum cv. 'Sweet Chelsea' were cocultivated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain GV3101 harboring derivatives if the binary vector pCAMBIA …

Molecular characterization and induction of a peach beta-1,3-glucanase gene
A peach genomic library of cultivar Stark Earligo was screened using a pea $\beta$-1,3-glucanase gene as a probe. Five clones containing $\beta$-1,3-glucanase sequence were isolated and characterized. A 3.85 Kb DNA fragment of one of the genomic clones, containing peach $\beta$-1,3-glucanase gene …

GENOMIC TOOLS TO IMPROVE PEACH (P. PERSICA L. BATSCH) RESILIENCE TO CLIMATE CHALLENGES
As one of the earliest flowering fruit trees, peach is constitutively subjected to yield loss caused by freezing temperature occurrence at blooming time. However, higher winter average temperatures recorded in recent years may lead to anticipated budbreak increasing the magnitude of this …
