Conifers concentrate large numbers of NLR immune receptor genes on one chromosome
2023-10-23
Abstract excerpt
Nucleotide-binding domain and Leucine-rich Repeat (NLR) immune receptor genes form a major line of defence in plants, acting in both pathogen recognition and resistance machinery activation. NLRs are reported to form large gene clusters in limber pine ( Pinus flexilis ) but it is unknown how widespread this genomic architecture may be among the extant species of conifers (Pinophyta). We used comparative genomic a...
