PAL1 gene of the phenylpropanoid pathway increases resistance to the Cassava brown streak virus in cassava
Abstract Background The phenylalanine ammonia lyase genes play crucial role in plant response to biotic and abiotic stresses. In this study, we characterized the role of PAL genes in increasing resistance to the Cassava brown streak virus that causes the economically important cassava brown streak d...
