Genome-Wide Analysis of Genes From an Early-Diverging Angiosperm .

genes are the largest gene family in plants conferring resistance to pathogens. At present, studies on the evolution of genes in angiosperms mainly focused on monocots and eudicots, while studies on genes in the basal angiosperms are limited. represents an early-diverging angiosperm order, Nymphaeales, and confronts various pathogens during its lifetime, which can cause serious economic losses in terms of yield and quality.

Genome-wide Identification and Evolutionary Analysis of NBS-LRR Genes From .

is an important crop in the Triticeae tribe of the Poaceae family, and it has unique agronomic characteristics and genome properties. It possesses resistance to many diseases and serves as an important resource for the breeding of other Triticeae crops. We performed a genome-wide study on to identify the largest group of plant disease resistance genes ( genes), the nucleotide-binding site-leucine-rich repeat receptor (NBS-LRR) genes.

Distinct Patterns of Gene Gain and Loss: Diverse Evolutionary Modes of NBS-Encoding Genes in Three Solanaceae Crop Species.

Plant resistance conferred by nucleotide binding site (NBS)-encoding resistance genes plays a key role in the defense against various pathogens throughout the entire plant life cycle. However, comparative analyses for the systematic evaluation and determination of the evolutionary modes of NBS-encoding genes among Solanaceae species are rare. In this study, 447, 255, and 306 NBS-encoding genes were identified from the genomes of potato, tomato, and pepper, respectively.
