摘要
Bialaphos resistant rice plants expressing a bar gene under the control of the maize ubiquitin promoter which were inoculated with mycelia of the sheath blight disease pathogen, Rhizoctonia solani, and subsequently treated with the herbicide were completely protected from symptomatic infection. Substantial suppression of sheath blight symptoms was also recorded when bialaphos was applied to transgenic plants which had been infected with R. solani two days before herbicide treatment. It may therefore be possible to design new agronomic strategies for the simultaneous control of weeds and fungal pathogens in fields of transgenic plants expressing a bar gene.
