Genetics of avirulence genes in Blumeria graminis f.sp. hordei and physical mapping of AVR(a22) and AVR(a12).
Powdery mildew fungi are parasites that cause disease on a wide range of important crops. Plant resistance (R) genes, which induce host defences against powdery mildews, encode proteins that recognise avirulence (AVR) molecules from the parasite in a gene-for-gene manner. To gain insight into how vi...
