The rice blast resistance gene Ptr encodes an atypical protein required for broad-spectrum disease resistance

Genes that confer resistance to plant pathogens such as rice blast disease typically encode NLR-type receptor proteins. Here, Zhao et al. describe a new resistance locus that encodes a non-NLR Armadillo repeat protein required for broad-spectrum resistance in rice.
