    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of conferring or increasing resistance against fungal pathogens in plants, plant parts, and/or plant cells. To this end the invention focuses on facilitating or increasing the production and/or accumulation of a Myb41-type transcription factor (Myb41), fragment or homolog thereof in a plant, plant part and/or plant cell compared to corresponding wild type plants, wild type plant parts and/or wild type plant cells. The invention also relates to plants, plant parts, and/or plant cells having an increased resistance against fungal pathogens and to material and methods to create or use such plants plant parts or to produce products therefrom.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to plant breeding and farming. In particular the invention relates to materials and methods for improving plant yield, especially of soybean. Preferably such improvement is visible under fungal pathogen stress, caused e.g. by soybean rust. Methods of the invention comprise cultivating a plant comprising a heterologous expression cassette comprising a gene selected from Pti5, SAR8.2 and RLK2.
