Abstract
Potato Solanum tuberosum L. plants expressing an antisense M21334 fragment were obtained by agrobacterial transformation. A manifold decrease in activity of anionic isoperoxidase with pI ∼ 3.5 in the transformed plants demonstrated that the enzyme is encoded by M21334. The transformed plants showed a decrease in lignin accumulation and a dramatically lower resistance to the late blight agent Phytophthora infestans, implicating the enzyme in the response to P. infestans infection.
