Abstract
The present invention relates generally to a nucleic acid molecule encoding, or complementary to a nucleic acid molecule encoding, a polypeptide which confers, enhances, or otherwise facilitates resistance to a nematode in a plant cell. The nucleic acid molecule of the present invention is useful in the isolation of related nematode resistance, or nematode resistance-like genetic sequences, from other plants. Furthermore, the present invention provides for the generation of plants carrying non-endogenous nematode resistance, or nematode resistance-like genetic sequences, said plants exhibiting enhanced tolerance to parasitic nematodes and related pathogens.
