Molecular characterisation and genetic mapping of candidate genes for qualitative disease resistance in perennial ryegrass (<it>Lolium perenne </it>L.)

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Qualitative pathogen resistance in both dicotyledenous and monocotyledonous plants has been attributed to the action of resistance (R) genes, including those encoding nucleotide binding site – leucine rich repeat (NBS-LRR) proteins a...
