Abstract
The present invention provides plants, plant cells and methods of making transgenic plants or plant cells, wherein the plants or cells are resistant to bacterial blight. The invention provides isolated nucleic acid sequences comprising SEQ ID NO: 1 or fragments thereof which provide a plant with resistance to bacterial blight disease when transfected into the plant.
Claims24
An isolated nucleic acid sequence comprising SEQ ID NO:
- 1 or an isolated nucleic acid comprising a polynucleotide sequence of greater than about fifty nucleotides which hybridizes under stringent conditions to SEQ ID NO:1 and provides a plant with resistance to Xanthomonas when transfected into the plant.
An isolated nucleic acid comprising at least one nucleic acid selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NO:2, SEQ ID NO:3, SEQ ID NO:4, SEQ ID NO:49, SEQ ID NO:50, SEQ ID NO:51 and SEQ ID NO:52 or an isolated nucleic acid which hybridizes under stringent conditions to said isolated nucleic acid and provides a plant with resistance to Xanthomonas when transfected into the plant.
An isolated nucleic acid encoding a polypeptide of SEQ ID NO:5.
