Summary of the Evolutionary Events Considered in This Study and Their Consequence for Breeding Resistant Plants

Evolutionary Event Present in Consequence for Plant Breeding
Point mutations Xoo, Xoc Resistance by alleles with SNPs may be overcome
Recombination of TALE repeats Xoo, Xoc Resistance by longer modifications, for example, by genome editing, might be overcome if new site is matching terminal RVD stretches of different TALEs
Deletion/duplication of individual TALE repeats Xoo, Xoc Resistance by deletions or insertion of single nucleotides in alleles may be overcome
Reassortment of TALEs by Tn3-like transposases Xoo Transposition may lead to recombination (see above)
Reassortment of TALEs by integron-like mechanism Xoc, (Xoo AXO1947)
