Overexpression of a citrus NDR1 ortholog increases disease resistance in Arabidopsis

Overexpression of a citrus NDR1 ortholog increases disease resistance in Arabidopsis

Emerging devastating diseases, such as Huanglongbing (HLB) and citrus canker, have caused tremendous losses to the citrus industry worldwide. Genetic engineering is a powerful approach that could allow us to increase citrus resistance against these diseases. The key to the success of this approach r...
