1. A method for conferring, increasing or modifying resistance in a plant, a plant part, or a plant cell as compared to a wild type plant, a wild type plant part or a wild type plant cell against infections by a fungus of the class Basidiomycota wherein the method comprises the step of increasing the expression and/or activity of a polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence having at least 40% identity to an amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 2, 8, 14, 15, 16, 60, 5, 6, 36, 34, 51, 52, 48, 54, 26, 42, 30, 24, 56, 22, 32, 28, 10, 58, 18, 20, 38, 40, 44, or 46 in the plant, the plant part, or the plant cell in comparison to the wild type plant, the wild type plant part or the wild type plant cell. |
