摘要:
A blast disease-resistance gene (Pi-b), a functionally equivalent gene thereof and proteins encoded by the genes are provided. The gene is useful for creating a plant resistant to the blast disease and can confer a resistance to a broad range of the rice blast fungi on plants. Therefore, it is useful for controlling the disease and increasing crop yields.
