Potato modified for pathogen resistance

Solanum tuberosum L, variety Scarb N
No
Intracellular expression of the transgenic hrpN gene has been shown to upregulate the expression of endogenous PR2, PR5 and PR10 genes which may confer increased protection against biotrophic pathogens in transgenic Solanum tuberosum L. plants as compared to control.

The term “Recipient organism” refers to an organism (either already modified or non-modified) that was subjected to genetic modification, whereas “Parental organisms” refers to those that were involved in cross breeding or cell fusion.
Variety: Scarb N

Characteristics of the modification process
pBIP-N constructed on the basis of pBI121 binary vector by insertion of hrpN-FLAG sequence into T-region
EN
  • Agrobacterium-mediated DNA transfer
Some of these genetic elements may be present as fragments or truncated forms. Please see notes below, where applicable.
  • BCH-GENE-SCBD-108047-2 Harpin protein coding sequence | Pectobacterium carotovorum (PECCA)
    Protein coding sequence | Resistance to diseases and pests
  • BCH-GENE-SCBD-15001-5 Neomycin Phosphotransferase II | Escherichia coli (ECOLX)
    Protein coding sequence | Resistance to antibiotics (Kanamycin)
The hrpN sequence is modified at the 3 'end by addition of a short (8 codons) FLAG-epitope, allowing easy detection of its product by means of commercial anti-FLAG antibodies.
