Effect of yhfS gene on Bt LLP29 antioxidant and UV rays resistance.

These tests revealed that the loss of yhfS gene led to metabolic disorders and the reduction of antioxidant ability of Bt. Higher ROS level and lower anti-oxidative capacity might be responsible for the reduced UV resistance when the gene was deleted. These results not only greatly enrich mechanism of Bt UV resistance, but also provide important theoretical basis for Bt application. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
