Gene encoding FHB1 resistance to fusarium head blight disease and uses thereof
Methods and recombinant vectors for increasing resistance to Fusarium head blight (FHB) infection in plants. Exogenous Fhb1 nucleic acids are described to generate transgenic plants having increased resistance to FHB relative to a control plant. The nucleotide sequence of the exogenous nucleic acid comprises SEQ ID NO:1, 2, 4, 5, or 6; has at least 95% sequence identity to SEQ ID NO:1, 2, 4, 5, or 6; encodes a protein comprising the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 3, 7, 8, or 9; or encodes a protein having at least 95% amino acid identity to SEQ ID NO: 3, 7, 8, or 9.
