J. J. Fan, Wang, P., Xu, X., Liu, K., Ruan, Y. Y., Zhu, Y. S., Cui, Z. H., and Zhang, L. J., Characterization of a TIR-NBS-LRR gene associated with downy mildew resistance in grape, vol. 14, pp. 7964-7975, 2015.

Grapevine downy mildew, caused by Plasmopara viticola, is a devastating disease that results in considerable economic losses as well as environmental damage through the repeated application of fungicides. The nucleotide-binding site leucine-rich repeat gene family functions in plant immunoactivity against various pathogens and pests. In this study, the 5' and 3' ends of the resistance gene homology fragment RGA5 were obtained by rapid amplification of cDNA ends.
