Abstract
An isolated nucleic acid comprising a sequence of SEQ ID NO:2. The nucleic acid sequence can be transformed into plant cells. The nucleic acid codes for disease resistance in plants. The transformed plant cells can then be introduced to plants for regeneration of disease resistant plants.
Claims8
A method of conferring disease resistance to a monocotyledonous plant comprising:
- stably transforming into the genome of a monocotyledonous plant, a nucleic acid comprising SEQ ID No:2,
- whereby improved disease resistance relative to the untransformed plant is conferred.
A method of conferring rice blast resistance to rice comprising:
- stably transforming into the genome of a rice plant, a nucleic acid comprising SEQ ID NO:2,
- whereby improved disease resistance relative to the untransformed plant is conferred.
A method of conferring resistance to disease in a monocotyledonous plant comprising
- stably integrating into the genome of said plant a nucleic acid having a sequence which codes for a protein comprising the ankyrin motif consensus sequence.
A method of conferring resistance to rice blast disease in a monocotyledonous plant comprising
- stably integrating into the genome of said plant a nucleic acid having a sequence which codes for a protein comprising the ankyrin motif consensus sequence.
