Two different R gene loci co-evolved with Avr2 of Phytophthora infestans and confer distinct resistance specificities in potato

Late blight, caused by the oomycete pathogen Phytophthora infestans, is the most devastating disease in potato. For sustainable management of this economically important disease, resistance breeding relies on the availability of resistance (R) genes. Such R genes against P. infestans have evolved in...
