Abstract excerpt
Recessive mlo resistance alleles of the Mlo locus in barley control a non race-specific resistance response to infection by the obligate biotrophic fungus Erysiphe graminis f.sp. hordei. All the mlo alleles analysed stop fungal growth at the same developmental stage within a subcellularly restricted, highly localized cell wall apposition directly beneath the site of abortive fungal penetration. We report that...
