N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most common RNA modification in eukaryotes and has been implicated as a novel epigenetic marker that involved various biological processes. The pattern functional dissection of m6A regulation several major human viral diseases have already reported. However, patterns functions distribution plant disease bursting remain largely unknown.We analyse high-quality methylomes rice plants infected with two devastating viruses. We find methylation mainly associated...

Broad-spectrum resistance gene pyramiding helps the development of varieties with broad-spectrum and durable to M. oryzae. However, detailed information about how these different sources genes act together or what are best combinations achieve is limited. Here a set fifteen polygene lines (PPLs) were constructed using marker-assisted selection (MAS). Using artificial inoculation assays at seedling heading stage, combined natural induction identification under multiple field environments, we...

Necrotrophic fungus Rhizoctonia solani Kühn (R. solani) causes serious diseases in many crops worldwide, including rice and maize sheath blight (ShB). Crop resistance to the is a quantitative trait mechanism remains largely unknown, severely hindering progress on developing resistant varieties. In this study, we found that variety YSBR1 has apparently stronger ability suppress expansion of R. than susceptible Lemont both field growth chamber conditions. Comparison transcriptomic profiles...

ABSTRACT Rhizoctonia solani AG1 IA is a harmful necrotrophic fungus responsible for various crop diseases, including maize and rice sheath blight, which can lead to significant production losses. However, the pathogenic mechanisms roles of effectors in this pathogen remain poorly understood. In study, we identified glycoside hydrolase 16 family gene, RsEG146 , from R. that was upregulated during its infection Zea mays leaves. When transiently expressed through agroinfiltration, induced cell...

Sheath blight (SB) caused by the soil borne pathogen Rhizoctonia solani is one of most serious global rice diseases. Breeding resistant cultivar economical and effective strategy to control disease. However, no varieties are completely SB, only a few reliable quantitative trait loci (QTLs) linked with SB resistance have been identified date. In this study, we conducted genome-wide association study (GWAS) using 299 from diversity panel 1 (RDP1) that were genotyped 44 000 high-density single...

Rhizoctonia solani is one of the important pathogenic fungi causing several serious crop diseases, such as maize and rice sheath blight. Current methods used to control disease mainly depend on spraying fungicides because there no immunity or high resistance available in crops. Spraying double-strand RNA (dsRNA) for induced-gene silencing (SIGS) a new potentially sustainable environmentally friendly tool plant diseases. Here, we found that fluorescein-labelled EGFP-dsRNA could be absorbed by...

An economic strategy to control plant disease is improve defense pathogens by deploying resistance genes. Plant polygalacturonase inhibiting proteins (PGIPs) have a vital role in against phytopathogenic fungi fungal (PG) activity. We previously reported that rice PGIP1 (OsPGIP1) inhibits PG activity Rhizoctonia solani, the causal agent of sheath blight (SB), and involved regulating SB. Here, we report OsPGIP2, protein ortholog OsPGIP1, does not possess PGIP activity; however, few amino acid...

The soil-borne necrotrophic fungus Rhizoctonia solani is one of destructive fungi causing severe yield losses in various important crops. However, the host defense mechanisms against invasion this pathogen are poorly understood. In study, we employed an iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomic approach to investigate proteins responsive R. using resistant rice cultivar YSBR1. As a whole, identified 319 differentially accumulated (DAPs) after inoculation plants with solani. Functional...

Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe oryzae, threatens rice production in most of the rice-growing areas China, especially regions that have grown Oryza sativa subsp. japonica recent years. The use resistance genes is effective and economical approach for blast control. In our study, a set six near-isogenic lines (NIL) were developed introgression alleles Piz locus (Pi2, Pigm, Pi40, Pi9, Piz, Pizt) into blast-susceptible, high-yielding, high-quality '07GY31' via marker-assisted backcross...

This paper aims to study the seismic behavior of squat steel-reinforced concrete (SRC) shear walls with a high axial load ratio. Nine SRC varying ratios, steel and horizontal distributed reinforcement ratios were tested under lateral cyclic reversed loading an load. The failure process, load-deformation hysteretic response, strength, ductility, strain specimens are reported. results show that all failed in crushing web concrete. No occurred after was crushed since boundary elements encased...

Summary Sheath blight (ShB), caused by Rhizoctonia solani , is a highly destructive disease in many crops worldwide and no major resistance genes are available. Here, we identified sbr1 ( sheath 1 ) rice mutant, which shows enhanced ShB maintains wildtype agronomic traits including yield, but carries an undesired stay‐green phenotype. Through map‐based cloning transgenic validation, found that insertion disrupting the Stay‐Green OsSGR gene responsible for phenotypes. Mechanistically, / Ossgr...

The soil-borne, asexual fungus Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici (Fol) is the causal agent of tomato wilt disease. Autophagy plays a crucial role in development and virulence Fol. Fol endosomal system highly dynamic has been shown to be associated with conidiogenesis pathogenicity. Rab GTPases regulators are conserved regulating autophagy endocytosis most eukaryotes. Identification characterization additional fungal pathogens should facilitate understanding different filamentous fungi....
