ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an isolated gene fragment which confers disease resistance to plants by responding to an avirulence gene in plant pathogens. The gene fragment encodes for protein kinase, particularly serine/threonine kinase. The gene can be cloned into an expression vector to produce a recombinant DNA expression system suitable for insertion into cells to form a transgenic plant transformed with that gene fragment. Also disclosed is a process of conferring disease resistance to plants by growing plant host cells transformed with that expression system and expressing the gene conferring disease resistance to impart such resistance to the host cells.
