COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS USEFUL FOR SITE-DIRECTED RECOMBINATION IN PLANTS

摘要

This invention relates generally to useful compositions and methods related to plant site-directed recombination. In particular, the invention relates to novel nucleic acid sequences unique to a portion of the sorghum NBS-LRR region, as well as vectors, seeds, plant parts and plants comprising these sequences. Methods to investigate recombination co-factors, and methods to investigate potential herbicides are within the scope. This invention also relates to fungal pathogens of sorghum, particularly Periconiacircinata.
