Abstract excerpt
An understanding of the variation pattern in disease resistance (R) genes is essential for its use in breeding programs aimed at neutralizing the threat of pathogens. Although the variation between populations is well known, there is little research about R-gene variation patterns within populations. Here, we investigate the polymorphism at three R-gene loci of 39 individual plants from nine populations of...
