Plants have developed various mechanisms for avoiding pathogen invasion, including <i>resistance</i> (<i>R</i>) genes. Most <i>R</i> genes encode nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat containing proteins (NLRs). Here, we report the isolation of three new bacterial blight <i>R</i> genes in rice, <i>Xa1-2</i>, <i>Xa14</i>, and <i>Xa31</i>(<i>t</i>), which were allelic to <i>Xa1</i> and encoded atypical NLRs with unique central tandem repeats (CTRs). We also found that <i>Xa31</i>(<i>t< ...[more]
