Cloning southern corn rust resistant gene rppk and its cognate gene avrrppk from puccinia polysora

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Gengshen Chen from the specific pathogen58, , no NLR genes recognizing these core effectors have been identifiedHere, we cloned a maize NLR gene, RppK. The introgression of RppK into multiple elite maize inbred lines and hybrids significantly enhanced resistance against P. polysora and increased yields in the present of P. polysora (Fig. , and Supplementary Figs., ). The improved maize lines were planted in different locations and were challenged with different P. polysora isolates, and the results showed that RppK functioned well in all tested locations (Supplementary Figs. , and, ). These results indicate that the deployment of a single NLR . . .
