Transcriptome Sequence Analysis of Defense Response of Resistant and Susceptible Bottle Gourd to Powdery Mildew

Agronomy, 2023
Powdery mildew (PM) is the main disease that afflicts bottle gourd. Previous studies on PM mainly focused on its effects on pumpkin, melon, and other crops; however, the exact molecular mechanism of bottle gourd resistance to PM remains unclear.
