Transgenic pathogen-resistant organism whose genome contains at least two different genes under the control of active promoters with pathogen-inhibiting action. This organism is distinguished by a synergistic pathogen-inhibiting action. This action is evident particularly when the genes code for the gene products chitinase (ChiS, ChiG), glucanase (GluG), protein synthesis inhibitor (PSI) and antifungal protein (AFP).

Transgenic pathogen-resistant organism

Described are a method of producing pathogen-resistant plants in which a protein-synthesis inhibitor gene or a fusion product of the protein-synthesis inhibitor gene or of the protein-synthesis inhibitor protein with ligands permitting specific attachment to cells is introduced into the genotype of plants under the control of an active promotor, and the use of the protein-synthesis inhibitor protein obtained by introducing the protein-synthesis inhibitor gene into the bacterial overproducers for making pharmaceutical preparations.

Transgenic pathogen-resistant organism whose genome contains at least two different genes under the control of active promoters with pathogen-inhibiting action. This organism is distinguished by a synergistic pathogen-inhibiting action. This action is evident particularly when the genes code for the gene products chitinese (ChiS, ChiG), glucanase (GluG), protein synthesis inhibitor (PSI) and antifungal protein (AFR).
