Abstract
This invention concerns the preparation and use of an isolated nucleic acid fragments in order to confer a resistance gene mediated defense response in plants against a fungus comprising in its genome virulent and/or avirulent AVR-Pita alleles. Chimeric genes incorporating such fragments and suitable regulatory sequences can be used to create transgenic plants which can produce a resistance gene mediated defense response against a fungus comprising in its genome virulent and/or avirulent AVR-Pita alleles.
