The alteration o f the hormonal balance in plant can strongly change
many genes expression, including genes, connected with action of protective
reactions. Therefore the interesting approach to increase of plant resistance
to pathogens is reception o f transgenic plants with changed phytohormonal
status. Potato transgenic plants with additional isopenteniltransferase gene
received, using strain pGV2206
Agrobacterium tumefaciens,
in which genes
o f auxins synthesis were deleted. Transgenic regenerants with the increased
endogenous cytokinins contents had also increased o f activity level of plant
ch itin a s e s , p la y ing by a im p o rta n t role in p lan t p ro te c tion from
phytopathogenic fungi. Besides, they distinguish oneself by increased
resistance to one o f major factors o f pathogenesis - microorganisms
pectinases. Thus, received data, enabling to assume, that endogenous
cytokinins can participate in protective reactions o f plants by means o f
increase o f plant chitinases activity and increase o f plant resistance to
pathogens pectinases. Other approach was connected with the introduction
in potato genom o f isolated from radish seeds gene o f peptide antibiotics,
protecting plants from pathogens. The analysis received regenerants is
carried out.
