Disease Resistance Breeding
INQUIRYIntroductions
Diseases are the main factor affecting the growth of ornamental flowers. Pathogenic bacteria causing ornamental flower diseases can be classified as fungi, bacteria, viruses, and virus-like. Because of the wide variety and rapid variation of pathogens, the current goal of breeding for disease resistance in ornamental flowers is to produce varieties with broad-spectrum durable resistance.
Lifeasible summarizes the latest advances in disease-resistance gene mining and is dedicated to using molecular breeding tools to help promote the effectiveness of disease-resistance breeding in ornamental flowers.
How We Help
The specific resistance of an ornamental flower to a particular pathogen depends on whether it often has the corresponding resistance gene. Also, the specific pathogenicity of a pathogen determines whether the pathogen has a non-toxic gene. The defense genes of ornamental flowers can produce mRNA and are associated proteins that act directly on the pathogen and inhibit its proliferation. The pathogenic damage pathways of different species of pathogens to the host are as follows.
- Production of enzymes that destroy host cells, causing decay and necrosis of host tissues.
- Secretion of toxins that destroy host cell membranes and normal metabolism or secretion of substances that block host ducts.
- Use the protein and nucleic acid synthesis system as raw material for its proliferation.
- Integrates fragments of itself into the host.

What We Provide
Molecular Breeding for Fungal Disease Resistance
Fungal diseases are a major threat to the growth and ornamental value of ornamental flowers, and fungi cause about 70% of diseases in plants. Usually, fungal diseases of ornamental flowers are treated chemically. However, chemical fungicides are effective against only a few diseases and can lead to pathogen resistance. We genetically engineered glucoamylase, chitinase, defensin, osmolyte, and pathogenesis-related genes into ornamental flowers to produce varieties with fungal disease resistance. We can also control fungal pathogens through host-induced gene silencing and spray-induced gene silencing techniques.
Molecular Breeding for Bacterial Diseases Resistance
Diseases caused by bacteria pose a great danger to ornamental flowers. We use edit-assisted selection techniques to facilitate the development of resistant varieties of ornamental flowers. We are committed to helping our customers improve ornamental flower varieties through Agrobacterium-mediated plant transformation and genome editing technologies.
Molecular Breeding for Viral Diseases Resistance
Plants have an innate immune system like that of animals, capable of accurately recognizing pathogenic bacteria and activating the plant's defense response. The activation of innate immunity in plant cells not only inhibits the growth of pathogenic bacteria but also causes significant damage to itself. Our scientists have been working on the plant's innate immune system for a long time. They expect to achieve precise defense of the plant immune system against viruses through molecular biology techniques.
Lifeasible provides the most comprehensive and efficient solutions for breeding ornamental flowers. We are committed to helping our customers cultivate more ornamental flowers. We look forward to providing you with the most professional and efficient service to meet your individual needs. If you are interested in our services or have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
