Abstract:
An isolated DNA molecule which, when recombinantly transferred into a non-resistant tomato plant, expresses a protein which confers resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp lycopersici race 2, comprising:(a) a DNA molecule comprising the nucleotide sequence of SEQ ID NO:1;(b) a DNA molecule capable of hybridization with SEQ ID NO:1 under conditions of 6.times.SSC, 0.5% SDS at 65.degree. C., washing at 2.times.SSC at room temperature, and which encodes a protein which confers resistance to Fusarium oxysporum f.sp lycopersici race 2; or(c) a DNA molecule which encodes a protein encoded by the DNA of (a) or (b).
