The wheat powdery mildew resistance gene *Pm4* also confers resistance to wheat blast
T. O’hara, A. Steed, et al.
Discover how the *Pm4* gene, known for its role against wheat powdery mildew, also offers a defense against the devastating wheat blast fungus *Magnaporthe oryzae*. Authors from the John Innes Centre and other esteemed institutions reveal key insights into the effectiveness of different *Pm4* alleles, highlighting the complexities of achieving durable resistance in wheat.
