Abstract:
This review comments on recent advances in research of disease resistance genes(R Genes) in defence system of plants. The R genes cloned up to date are summarized and classified roughly into four classes listed in the Table 1. The location and the function of the R proteins, i.e., the expressed products of different R genes in the cells are reviewed. In addition, the polymorphism of coding region of R genes, the different fashions of R gene arrangement on the chromosomes, and the evolution and origin of R genes are discussed.

Transgenic Plants
The first-ever transgenic plant was a tobacco plant developed in 1983 that showed resistance against the tobacco mosaic virus. Since then, many transgenic plants have been developed and commercialized for improving the agricultural, ornamental, and horticultural value of a crop plant. Transgenic...
