Lineage-specific duplications of NBS-LRR genes occurring before the divergence of six Fragaria species

Lineage-specific duplications of NBS-LRR genes occurring before the divergence of six Fragaria species

Abstract Background Plant disease resistance (R) genes are evolving rapidly and play a critical role in the innate immune system of plants. The nucleotide binding sites-leucine rich repeat (NBS-LRR) genes are one of the largest classes in plant R genes. Previous studies have focused on the NBS-LRR g...
