Claim 5:
6. A method of generating a plant having pathogen resistance, the method comprising the steps of:
(i) providing one or more silencing construct(s) directed to an endogenous nucleotide sequence encoding a CPL3 protein, wherein the nucleotide sequence encoding the CPL3 protein is selected from the group consisting of:
(a) the nucleotide sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 9;
(b) a nucleotide sequence having at least 95% identity to the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 9;
(c) a nucleotide sequence encoding the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 19; and
(d) a nucleotide sequence encoding the amino acid sequence having at least 95% identity to the sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 19, of SEQ ID NO: 19 or as defined in claim 1, or one or more sequences encoding the same;

(ii) introducing the one or more silencing construct(s) into a plant cell, tissue, organ, plant, seed, or plant material to obtain transformed plant cell, tissue, organ, plant, seed, or plant material; and
(iii) optionally, regenerating a plant from the transformed plant cell, tissue, organ or plant material,
wherein the regenerated plant has pathogen resistance.
