Abstract: The present disclosure discloses an AtPPR1 gene (negative regulatory factor) for Phytophthora resistance and homologous genes thereof, involving an AtPPR1 gene and a protein encoded by the AtPPR1 gene. The AtPPR1 gene has a nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:6, and the protein encoded by the AtPPR1 gene has an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO:7.
