Resumen:
Plants of strawberry (cultivar Pa´ jaro) were transformed with three defense related genes: ch5B, gln2 andch5B, gln2 and
ap24 using Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The ch5B gene encodes for a chitinase from Phaseolus vulgaris, whileusing Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The ch5B gene encodes for a chitinase from Phaseolus vulgaris, while
gln2 and ap24 encode for a glucanase and a thaumatin-like protein, respectively, both from Nicotiana
tabacum. Sixteen transgenic lines expressing one or a combination of two defense genes were obtained.
Phytopathological tests showed that two transgenic lines expressing only the ch5B gene displayed high
levels of resistance to gray mold disease (Botrytis cinerea). The resistance was correlated with the presence
of the foreign protein CH5B and the increase of chitinolytic activity in leaves. However, resistance toward
