Here, we provide an important resource for the identification of functional R-genes. In this study, we searched for and found a total of 106 NBS-encoding genes in the current blueberry genome (Aug. 2017). The NBS genes were grouped into eleven distinct classes based on their domain architecture. More than 22% of the NBS genes are present in clusters. Ten genes were mapped onto seven linkage groups. Phylogenetic analysis grouped these genes into two major clusters based on their structural variation.
