Homologues of Cladosporium fulvum Resistance genes of the Vf region (HcrVf)
EN
The genes encode for resistance against Venturia inaequalis (apple scab). The gene product consists an extracellular receptor protein of a leucine-rich repeat (LRR) class with a transmembrane (TM) region acting as a membrane anchor.

The role of the predicted protein has yet to be demonstrated however by analogy to the tomato Cf gene it is likely that the HcrVf2 in an extracellular receptor involved in pathogen recognition.
