Description
The book introduces plant mechanisms of defense and immunity, focusing on resistance genes, of TNL type, and CNL type, and non-TIR type. Then it describes the function of LRR domain, TIR domain, and the downstream signalling.
Several chapters present in detail the resistance genes in wheat, rice, and coffee. Tables present an overview on R gene functions. Finally, engineering of R genes and breeding for pyramiding several R genes are discussed.
