Journal ArticleDOI

Resistance gene-dependent plant defense responses.

TL;DR: The essential prerequisites for pathogen recognition and the induction of localized defense responses are examined, showing which responses are required to abolish or retard pathogen growth and how.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative genomics reveals mobile pathogenicity chromosomes in Fusarium

Li-Jun Ma, +65 more
- 18 Mar 2010 - 
TL;DR: Comparison of genomes of three phenotypically diverse Fusarium species revealed lineage-specific genomic regions in F. oxysporum that include four entire chromosomes and account for more than one-quarter of the genome, putting the evolution of fungal pathogenicity into a new perspective.
Journal ArticleDOI

Plant Disease Resistance Genes

TL;DR: Isolation of R genes has revealed four main classes of R gene sequences whose products appear to activate a similar range of defense mechanisms, and provides insight into R gene function and evolution, and should lead to novel strategies for disease control.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation of the tomato Cf-9 gene for resistance to Cladosporium fulvum by transposon tagging

TL;DR: The predicted protein shows homology to the receptor domain of several receptor-like protein kinases in Arabidopsis, to antifungal polygalacturonase-inhibiting proteins in plants, and to other members of the leucine-rich repeat family of proteins.
