TLDR
The Cre3 gene confers a high level of resistance to the root endoparasitic nematode Heterodera avenae in wheat and two related gene sequences have been analysed at the Cre3 locus, which appears to be a pseudogene with a frame shift caused by a deletion event.Abstract:
The Cre3 gene confers a high level of resistance to the root endoparasitic nematode Heterodera avenae in wheat. A DNA marker cosegregating with H. avenae resistance was used as an entry point for m...read more

Clusters of resistance genes in plants evolve by divergent selection and a birth-and-death process.
TL;DR: A new model adapted and expanded from one proposed for the evolution of vertebrate major histocompatibility complex and immunoglobulin gene families is proposed resulting in evolution of individual R genes within a haplotype that emphasizes divergent selection acting on arrays of solvent-exposed residues in the LRR.

Plant disease-resistance proteins and the gene-for-gene concept
TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-analyses of the response of the immune system to canine coronavirus to infectious disease and shows clear patterns in response to antibiotics and in particular the immune response to EMT.
Journal ArticleDOI
The root knot nematode resistance gene Mi from tomato is a member of the leucine zipper, nucleotide binding, leucine-rich repeat family of plant genes.
Stephen B. Milligan,John Bodeau,Jafar Yaghoobi,Isgouhi Kaloshian,Pim Zabel,Valerie M. Williamson +5 more
TL;DR: The Mi locus of tomato confers resistance to root knot nematodes, and three open reading frames were identified with similarity to cloned plant disease resistance genes, including Prf, a tomato gene required for resistance to Pseudomonas syringae.

RESISTANCE GENE COMPLEXES: Evolution and Utilization
TL;DR: More than 30 genes have been characterized from different plant species that provide resistance to a variety of different pathogen and pest species and the structures of most are consistent with a role in pathogen recognition and defense response signaling.

Divergent Evolution of Plant NBS-LRR Resistance Gene Homologues in Dicot and Cereal Genomes
TL;DR: The results suggest that the two main groups of resistance genes underwent divergent evolution in cereal and dicot genomes and imply that their cognate signaling pathways have diverged as well.

Basic Local Alignment Search Tool
TL;DR: A new approach to rapid sequence comparison, basic local alignment search tool (BLAST), directly approximates alignments that optimize a measure of local similarity, the maximal segment pair (MSP) score.

MAPMAKER: An interactive computer package for constructing primary genetic linkage maps of experimental and natural populations
Eric S. Lander,Eric S. Lander,Philip Green,Jeff Abrahamson,Aaron Barlow,Mark J. Daly,Stephen E Lincoln,Lee Newburg +7 more
TL;DR: A computer package, called MAPMAKER, designed specifically for the construction of linkage maps in a number of organisms, including the human and several plants, and it is outlined the mapping strategies that have been used.

The product of the tobacco mosaic virus resistance gene N: Similarity to toll and the interleukin-1 receptor
Steven A. Whitham,Savithramma P. Dinesh-Kumar,Doil Choi,Reinhard Hehl,Reinhard Hehl,Catherine Corr,Barbara Baker,Barbara Baker +7 more
TL;DR: The sequence similarity of N, Toll, and IL-1R suggests that N mediates rapid gene induction and TMV resistance through a Toll-IL-1-like pathway.

Isolation of the tomato Cf-9 gene for resistance to Cladosporium fulvum by transposon tagging
David A. Jones,Colwyn M. Thomas,Kim E. Hammond-Kosack,Peter J. Balint-Kurti,Jonathan D. G. Jones +4 more
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.

RPS2 of Arabidopsis thaliana: a leucine-rich repeat class of plant disease resistance genes
Andrew F. Bent,Barbara N. Kunkel,Douglas Dahlbeck,Kit L. Brown,Renate Schmidt,Jérôme Giraudat,Jeffrey Leung,Brian J. Staskawicz +7 more
TL;DR: The function of the RPS2 gene product in defense signal transduction is postulated to involve nucleotide triphosphate binding and protein-protein interactions and may also involve the reception of an elicitor produced by the avirulent pathogen.
