The effect of pathogenesis-related 10 (Pr-10) gene on the progression of fusarium wilt in Musa acuminata cv. Berangan

PR-10 is a member of pathogenesis-related (PR) genes elicited by the plant’s defense mechanism during pathogen attack. Elevated expression of PR-10 upon different pathogen invasions has been observed in many plant species suggesting its role as an anti-bacterial, anti-viral and anti-fungal gene. How...
