Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 67, Issue 11, Page 2781-2783, November 2025.Transferring nucleotide‐binding leucine‐rich repeat receptor (NLR) genes between distantly related genes often fails. Du et al. solved this by pairing sensor and helper NLRs and showed that rice expressing the sensor NLR Bs2 and the helper NLR NbNRC3 or NbNRC4, strongly resisted Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzicola.
