The article reviews hierarchies of regulatory and resistance metabolite and protein biosynthetic genes induced in plants following pathogen perception to produce resistance metabolites and proteins that directly suppress pathogen development in plants. Their deployment in improving crop plant resistance against microbial stress is based on genome editing tools. Based on genome editing, resistance genes (R) can be identified in germplasm collections and replaced in commercial cultivars to improve plant resistance. The hierarchy of R genes with significant trait/resistance effect can be identified in world germplasm collections and used to replace non-functional genes in commercial cultivars to improve resistance.
