A broad-spectrum disease resistance-related protein derived from wheat and related biomaterials and use thereof are provided. The protein is selected from the group consisting of A1) a protein with the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1; A2) a protein having more than 80% identity to, having a same function as the protein with the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, and obtained by substitutions and/or deletions and/or additions of amino acid residues thereof; and A3) a fusion protein with a same function obtained by joining a tag at N-terminus and/or C-terminus of A1) or A2). The TaCNGC5.1 overexpression lines showed significantly improved disease resistance, thus suggesting that TaCNGC5.1 may play an important role in breeding plants with improved resistance to stripe rust.
A method for breeding transgenic wheat with improved disease resistance, the method comprising up-regulating, enhancing or increasing an expression of a gene encoding a protein or content of the protein in target wheat to obtain disease-resistant wheat having a higher disease resistance than that of the target wheat, wherein the protein is selected from the group consisting of:
