Plant resistance ( R ) genes encode proteins that mediate the recognition of corresponding pathogen-encoded avirulence (Avr) proteins, triggering localized cell death (the hypersensitive response) and systemic acquired resistance. A large number of R genes have been characterized from numerous plant
