Broad-spectrum mildew resistance in Arabidopsis thaliana mediated by RPW8

Plant disease resistance (R) genes control the recognition of specific pathogens and activate subsequent defense responses. We show that the Arabidopsis thaliana locus RESISTANCE TO POWDERY MILDEW8 (RPW8) contains two naturally polymorphic, dominant R genes, RPW8.1and RPW8.2, which individually cont...
