TRANSGENIC PLANTS HAVING RESISTANCE TO A FUNGAL DISEASE

摘要

The present invention provides novel nucleic acid sequences, which upon their transformation into plants, provide the later with resistance to plant fungal diseases, in particular to downy mildew disease. The nucleic acids of the invention, one or more thereof, are transformed into a plant cell, from which said plant is generated. Such plants also form part of the invention. The nucleic acid of the invention may also be used for mass production of biologically functional proteins or peptides encoded thereby.
