METHOD FOR INCREASING RESISTANCE TO PATHOGENS IN TRANSGENIC PLANTS

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for increasing the resistance to pathogens in transgenic plants and/or plant cells, where a DNA sequence which codes for a protein with a leucine-rich repeat (LRR) domain and/or with a kinase activity is introduced into the plant or plant cell and expressed therein. The present invention likewise relates to the use of nucleic acids which code for such a protein for producing transgenic plants or plant cells with an increased resistance to pathogens. The present invention further relates to a nucleic acid sequences which code for a protein which confers an increased resistance to pathogens in plants.
