An efficient gene disruption method for the woody plant pathogen Botryosphaeria dothidea
An efficient gene disruption method for the woody plant pathogen Botryosphaeria dothidea

We established a gene disruption (GD) method based on gene homologous recombination (GHR) for B. dothidea using polyethylene glycol-mediated protoplast transformation. The results showed that a GHR cassette gave much higher GD efficiency than a GHR plasmid. A high GD efficiency (1.3 ± 0.14 per 106 protopasts) and low frequency of random insertions were achieved with a DNA
