Publication number: 20150143574Abstract: The invention relates to a new gene that is able to provide plants with resistance against pathogens, more preferably Verticillium, Ralstonia or Fusarium. Said gene is typical for Brassicaceae and encodes for a proteins having a sequence as depicted in FIG. 7 or FIG. 2A. Also provided are methods for enhancing the pathogen resistance of plants, wherein said plants preferably are Brassicaceae, but wherein the resistance also is functional in other plants. Further provided are host cells with a nucleotide construct encoding said protein.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 24, 2013Publication date: May 21, 2015Inventors: Bart Pierre Hélène Joseph Thomma, Koste Abdissa Yadeta
