Genome-wide identification and expression analysis of nucleotide-binding site leucine-rich repeat genes associated with downy mildew resistance in spinach

Background Downy mildew is a destructive disease that causes severe losses in spinach ( Spinacia oleracea L.) yield and quality. Nucleotide-binding site-leucine-rich repeat (NBS-LRR) genes are core regulators of plant innate immunity and play critical roles in defense against pat...
