Using disease-resistant genes is the most effective strategy for protecting crops and ensuring agricultural production, or and protection against infections of different pathogens. Under biotic and abiotic stresses, NB-ARC proteins play a critical role in regulating several critical plant metabolic processes and pathways.

NB-ARC identification and characterization in soybean are still in their infancy, even though R genes have been characterized by various major crop plants. NB-ARC encoding (R) genes in the soybean genome were identified and characterized in silico.

The 103 NB-ARC genes were computationally identified in the soybean genome, randomly distributed on all soybean chromosomes except 5, 10, and 17. Phylogenetic analysis classified the NB-ARC proteins into nine primary groups. However, synteny analysis results of NB-ARC genes of soybean found the best orthologous hit …
