TL;DR: The rice Xa21 gene, which confers resistance to Xanthomonas oryzae pv. race 6, was isolated by positional cloning and the sequence of the predicted protein, which carries both a leucine-rich repeat motif and a serine-threonine kinase-like domain, suggests a role in cell surface recognition of a pathogen ligand and subsequent activation of an intracellular defense response.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of the rice Xa21 disease resistance gene family.
TL;DR: A model for amplification and diversification of the Xa21 gene family is presented and two distinct classes of genes are revealed, including a receptor kinase-like open reading frame and truncated open reading frames of the predicted receptor Kinase.
