Use of fungal transformants expressing ß-glucuronidase activity to detect and measure hyphal biomass in infected plant tissues

Strains of the tomato pathogen Cladosporium fulvum and the Brassica pathogen Leptosphaeria maculans constitutively expressing Beta-glucuronidase were produced by cotransformation of a hygromycin-encoding vector pAN7-1 and a GUS encoding vector pNOM102. Their Beta-glucuronidase activity was used to d...
