TGERa , an Allelic Variant of PERU , Acts as the Pep‐13 Receptor and Confers Enhanced Resistance to Phytophthora Pathogens in Pla

Summary Statement

TGERa, a PERU allelic variant identified in the diploid potato inbred lines, functions as the receptor for the Phytophthora PAMP Pep‐13, whereas its paralog TGERb is nonfunctional. TGERa/PERU confers enhanced resistance to Phytophthora pathogens in heterologous plants.
