Abstract excerpt
Nucleotide binding site-leucine rich repeat (NBS-LRR) proteins are encoded by a ubiquitous gene family in sunflower and frequently harbor disease resistance genes. We investigated NBS-LRR-encoding resistance gene candidates (RGCs) flanking the downy mildew resistance genes Pl ( 8 ) and Pl ( 14 ) and the rust resistance gene R ( Adv ), which map on the NBS-LRR clusters of linkage groups 1 and 13 in sunflower...
