Abstract excerpt
Plants have developed various mechanisms for avoiding pathogen invasion, including resistance (R) genes. Most R genes encode nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat containing proteins (NLRs). Here, we report the isolation of three new bacterial blight R genes in rice, Xa1-2, Xa14, and Xa31(t), which were allelic to Xa1 and encoded atypical NLRs with unique central tandem repeats (CTRs). We also found...
