Abstract: The present invention relates to methods and compositions for identifying, selecting and/or producing a pathogen resistant plant or germplasm (e.g., soybean plant or germplasm) using genes derived from Glycine tomentella. Candidate genes capable of conferring pathogen resistance (e.g., to Asian Soy Rust) are provided. A plant or germplasm that has been identified, selected and/or produced by any of the methods of the present invention is also provided. Pathogen resistant seeds, plants and germplasms are also provided.

Abstract: A gas turbine engine nozzle segment and process for producing such a nozzle segment to exhibit improved durability and aerodynamic performance. The process produces a nozzle segment having at least one vane between and interconnecting a pair of platforms. The nozzle segment is cast from a gamma prime-strengthened nickel-base superalloy, on whose surface is thermal sprayed an environmental coating formed of a MCrAlX-type coating material. The surface of the environmental coating is then worked to cause the coating to have a surface finish of less than 2.0 micrometers Ra. Cooling holes are then drilled in the nozzle segment, after which an oxidation-resistant coating is applied on the smoothed surface of the nozzle segment so as to maintain an outermost surface on the nozzle segment having surface finish of less than 2.0 micrometers Ra.
