PLANT DISEASE RESISTANCE GENES

Annual Review of Plant Physiology and Plant Molecular Biology, 1997
▪ Abstract  In “gene-for-gene” interactions between plants and their pathogens, incompatibility (no disease) requires a dominant or semidominant resistance (R) gene in the plant, and a corresponding avirulence (Avr) gene in the pathogen. Many plant/pathogen interactions are of this type.

Insect Resistant Cotton Plants

Nature Biotechnology, 1990
We have expressed truncated forms of the insect control protein genes of Bacillus thuringiensis var. kurstaki HD-1(cryIA(b) and HD-73 (cryIA(c) in cotton plants at levels that provided effective control of agronomically important lepidopteran insect pests.

Engineered plant virus resistance

Plant Science, 2014
Virus diseases are among the key limiting factors that cause significant yield loss and continuously threaten crop production. Resistant cultivars coupled with pesticide application are commonly used to circumvent these threats. One of the limitations of the reliance on resistant cultivars is the inevitable breakdown of resistance due to the multitude ...

Plant Pathology: Resistance crumbles?

Current Biology, 1994
A plant disease resistance gene, of the kind involved in "gene-for-gene" interactions with pathogens, has been cloned and found to encode a putative serine/threonine kinase.

Plant nematode resistance genes

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 1999
Root-knot and cyst nematodes cause severe damage to crops throughout the world. Genes conferring resistance against nematodes have been identified in many plant species and several of these have been, or soon will be, cloned. Nematode biotypes that can infect resistant plants have been identified.

Chitooligosaccharide-induced plant stress resistance

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2023
In nature, the production of plant stress resistance traits is often induced by extreme environmental conditions. Under extreme conditions, plants can be irreversibly damaged. Intervention with phytostimulants, however, can improve plant stress resistance without causing damage to the plants themselves, hence maintaining the production.

Virus-resistant plants

1991
About 10% of world crop production is lost annually because of plant diseases caused by bacteria, fungi and viruses (Fraser, 1985). Crop losses as a result of virus diseases can be especially serious in developing countries in tropical and subtropical regions.

Recessive Resistance to Plant Viruses

2009
About half of the approximately 200 known virus resistance genes in plants are recessively inherited, suggesting that this form of resistance is more common for viruses than for other plant pathogens. The use of such genes is therefore a very important tool in breeding programs to control plant diseases caused by pathogenic viruses.
