Recently, Professor Liu Wenxuan's research group published a research paper titled "An Aegilops longissima NLR protein with integrated CC-BED module mediates resistance to wheat powdery mildew" in the internationally renowned journal Nature Communications. This is the third high-impact paper published by the research group in Nature Communications within six months, following two earlier publications in March and June of this year. The publication of these three innovative findings highlights the significant breakthroughs the group has achieved in the field of wheat powdery mildew resistance gene cloning. It not only demonstrates the research strength of the group but also represents an important contribution to global food security.
