Abstract excerpt
The maize lesion mimic gene Les22 is defined by dominant mutations and characterized by the production of minute necrotic spots on leaves in a developmentally specified and light-dependent manner. Phenotypically, Les22 lesions resemble those that are triggered during a hypersensitive disease resi...
