Abstract Understanding plant resistance to insects has lagged owing to a scarcity of cloned resistance genes. Here we report cloning of the greenbug resistance gene Gb3 in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), initially introgressed into cultivars such as ‘TAM112’ from Aegilops tauschii. Gb3 encodes an intracellular kinase–pseudokinase protein, featuring a unique MAP3K-like domain.

Parthenium argentatum, commonly known as guayule, is a desert shrub cultivated as a domestic source of natural rubber in the semi-arid southwestern United States. Guayule natural rubber (GR) may be used to replace petroleum-based rubber or in place of Hevea natural rubber (NR), but substitution must take into consideration differences in physical and chemical properties.
