Article Synopsis
- Pomegranate is a vital fruit crop that faces serious farming issues from pests and diseases, making the development of resistant varieties important for sustainable agriculture.
- Researchers identified 958 resistance gene analogues (RGAs) using a prediction tool, with the majority located on chromosomes 02 and 08, and found that many RGAs are linked to defense against biotic stresses.
- The study highlights the potential of differentially expressed RGAs, particularly receptor-like kinases (RLKs), in breeding pomegranates resistant to bacterial blight, supporting long-term cultivation sustainability.
pv. causing bacterial blight is a devastating disease of pomegranate in India and Pakistan. Most xanthomonads use the type III secretion system to inject transcription activator-like effector (TALE) proteins into the host cell.
