Abstract excerpt
Plant major resistance (R) genes are effective in detecting pathogen signal molecules and triggering robust defense responses. Investigating the natural variation in R genes will allow identification of the critical amino acid residues determining recognition specificity in R protein and the discovery of novel R alleles. The rice blast resistance gene Pike, comprising of two adjacent CC-NBS-LRR genes, namely,...
