“…With the increasing availability of plant genome sequences, R gene proteins have been identified in many plant species, such as A. thaliana [ 5 , 14 ]; Vaccinium spp. [ 19 ]; Amborella trichopoda , Musa acuminata , Phyllostachys heterocycla , Capsicum annuum , and Sesamum indicum by Shao et al 2016 [ 13 ]; Cicer arietinum [ 20 ]; Glycine max [ 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 ]; Oryza sativa [ 25 , 26 ]; Medicago truncatula [ 27 ]; Vitis vinifera and Populus trichocarpa by Yang et al 2008 [ 28 ]; Solanum tuberosum [ 29 ]; Brassica rapa and Brassica oleracea by Zhang et al 2016 [ 30 ]; Hordeum vulgare [ 31 ]; Setaria italica [ 32 ]; Theobroma cacao [ 5 ]; Populus trichocarpa [ 5 ]; V. vinifera [ 5 ]; Cucumis sativus [ 33 ]; Phaseolus vulgaris [ 16 , 24 ], Lotus japonicas , Cajanus cajan , Glycine soja by Zheng et al 2016 [ 16 ], Gossypium arboretum [ 34 ], etc. A recent study by Li et al 2016 [ 35 ] has identified NBS-encoding genes as well as receptor-like protein kinases (RLKs) and receptor-like proteins (RLPs), collectively called as Resistance Gene Analogs (RGAs), for 50 plant genomes using a RGAugury pipeline.…”
