Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Transferred ACC deaminase activity was expressed in both bacterial strains.
- Intervention effect ACC deaminase transfer improved CHA0 protection of cucumber against Pythium damping-off.
- Intervention effect ACC deaminase transfer improved CHA0 protection of potato tubers against Erwinia soft rot in small sealed containers.
- Intervention effect ACC deaminase activity did not significantly change CHA0 protection of tomato against Fusarium crown and root rot.
- Intervention effect ACC deaminase activity did not significantly change CHA0 protection of potato against soft rot in large sealed containers.
- Mechanism The authors suggest ACC deaminase may lower plant ethylene and thereby lengthen roots.
- Method / resource The constructed strains could serve as biosensors for ethylene in plant diseases.
