Genetic engineering of rice capable of synthesizing fructans and enhancing chilling tolerance.

abstract：:Although plants possess an arsenal of constitutive defences such as structural barriers and preformed antimicrobial defences, many attackers are able to overcome the pre-existing defence layers. In response, a range of inducible plant defences is set up to battle these pathogens. These mechanisms, commonly integrated ...
