“…Characterized RLP genes involved in resistance include the Cf genes from tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) that confer resistance against the fungal pathogen Cladosporium fulvum (Jones et al, 1994;Dixon et al, 1996Dixon et al, , 1998Thomas et al, 1997), tomato Ve genes (Kawchuk et al, 2001), apple (Malus domestica) HcrVf2 (Vinatzer et al, 2001), Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) RPP27 (Tö r et al, 2004), and tomato LeEIX1 and LeEIX2 (Ron and Avni, 2004). Developmental RLPs in Arabidopsis include TMM (Yang and Sack, 1995;Nadeau and Sack, 2002), which is involved in stomatal patterning, and CLAVATA2 (CLV2; Jeong et al, 1999) and its maize (Zea mays) ortholog FASCIATED EAR2 (FEA2; Taguchi-Shiobara et al, 2001), which are involved in meristem development.…”
