Project code: TP B07
Contract period: 01.07.2011 - 30.06.2015
Budget: 510,526 Euro
Purpose of research: Basic research

Ralstonia solanacearum is a major pathogen in plants. We intend to clarify the code of TALE-like proteins from the bacterial pathogen R. solanacearum (RATs) by in planta expression of RAT genes and subsequent transcriptome analysis. The RAT-code will be used to engineer promoter traps that mediate recognition of and resistance to R. solanacearum. In addition, we will screen a collection of Arabidopsis ecotypes to identify resistance genes that mediate recognition of RAT proteins.
