ABSTRACT:
Novel bacteria strains and plants are described which produce and secrete chitinase and other proteins as the result of the introduction of foreign DNA linked to a sequence encoding chitinase, an enzyme capable of degrading chitin present in fungi and nematodes. The bacterial strains have utility in producing chitinase for the purpose of inhibiting plant pathogens. Novel pathogen resistant plants are also described which are created by introduction of DNA encoding for the production of chitinase.
