Abstract excerpt
The resistance of sunflower, Helianthus annuus L., to downy mildew, caused by Plasmopara halstedii, is conferred by major genes denoted by Pl. Using degenerate and specific primers, 16 different resistance gene analogs (RGAs) have been cloned and sequenced. Sequence comparison and Southern-blot analysis distinguished six classes of RGA. Two of these classes correspond to TIR-NBS-LRR sequences while the remaining...
