The present invention relates to powdery mildew resistance-conferring genes, plants, plant parts and seeds comprising the resistance-conferring genes and their use in selecting powdery mildew resistant plants. Specifically, the present invention relates to a powdery mildew resistance conferring gene, wherein the amino acid sequence encoded by the resistance conferring gene is a primary amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID No.1, or has more than 70 % identity, preferably more than 80% identity, more preferably more than 90% identity, and most preferably more than 95% identity primary amino acid sequence; and wherein said resistance-conferring gene is impaired. |
