Abstract
Novel bacteria strains are decribed which are created by the introduction of DNA encoding for the production of chitinase, an enzyme capable of degrading chitin present in fungi and nematodes. The strains have utility in producing chitinase for the purpose of inhibiting plant pathogens. Novel pathogen-resistant plants are also described which are created by introduction of DNA encoding for the production of chitinase.
