The Huanglongbing (HLB) associated to Candidatus Liberibacter spp., which colonizes the phloem, is considered one of the most serious diseases of citrus. One of the strategies to control this disease consists to produce transgenic plants expressing genes encoding antibacterial peptides under the control of phloem-specific promoters. Recently, transgenic plants were obtained from Citrus si…
The citrus industry in Brazil has been affected by several diseases. Huanglongbing (HLB) is a citrus disease caused by endogenous sieve tube-restricted bacteria named Canditatus Liberibacter ssp that has caused serious problems to the crop. The genetic transformation represents an important tool that can be utilized in order to obtain disease resistance plants. A strategy to obtain transg…
Genetic transformation permits the introduction of genes in plant genoma and can be utilized in order to control problems related to plant diseases caused by microorganisms. Citrus sudden death (MSC) is a citrus disease probably caused by a citrus tristeza virus mutant strain and has caused serious problems to the Brazilian citriculture. Genetic transformation can be utilized in order to …
