The rpg4-Mediated Resistance to Wheat Stem Rust (Puccinia graminis) in Barley (Hordeum vulgare) Requires Rpg5, a Second NBS-LRR Gene, and an Actin Depolymerization Factor

The rpg4 gene confers recessive resistance to several races of wheat stem rust (Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici) and Rpg5 provides dominant resistance against isolates of the rye stem rust (P. graminis f. sp. secalis) in barley. The rpg4 and Rpg5 genes are tightly linked on chromosome 5H, and posit...
