Abstract

The aim of this project was a functional and physical characterisation of the sbm-1 gene from pea. The primary strategy was an attempt to identify the product of the functional allele from a yeast two-hybrid screen of cDNA libaries from resistant or susceptible plants using the virus- encoded avirulance factor (VPg) as a bait. A second strategy was to build resources (pea lines and libraries) that could be used in the physical isolation of the sbm-1 gene.
