Abstract: A plant expression vector pBI121 -StPR1 was constructed to clarify the role of potato StPR1 gene in disease resistance, and introduce StPR1 gene into tobacco by Agrobacterium transformation method. The disease resistance and physiological characteristics of transgenic tobacco were investigated using different pathogen treatment, including bacterial disease soft rot (E. carotovora subsp. Carotovora Borgey, Ecc; E. chrysanthemi Burkholder. Atroseptica Dye, Ech; E. carotovora subsp. Mc Fadden et Dimock, Eca), bacterial wilt (Ralstonia solanacearum, RS) and fungal disease dry rot (F. sambucinum, F. avenaceum). The results showed that the diameter of lesions leaves increased with the prolongation of stress time in transgenic tobacco and wild type (WT) under the pathogen stress, and the diameter of transgenic tobacco lesions were significantly smaller than WT. In the physiological characteristics analysis, the physiological indexes of leaves increased with the prolongation of stress time in WT and transgenic tobacco, but the activities of SOD, POD and CAT in transgenic tobacco were all increased to different degrees compared WT. The results of disease resistance and physiological characteristics showed that transgenic tobacco had stronger resistance to pathogenic bacteria and fungi, indicating that the StPR1 gene played an important role in the disease resistance of potato, which could provide a theoretical basis for PR1 gene resistance in plants.
