Cell-autonomous complementation of mlo resistance using a biolistic transient expression system

The barley geneMloencodes a prototype of a novel class of plant proteins. Inmlomutants, absence of the 60 kDa wild-type Mlo protein results in broad-spectrum resistance to the powdery mildew fungus,Erysiphe graminisf. sp.hordei. To directly assess its function,Mlowas transiently expressed with a mar...
