Abstract Rice false smut caused by Ustilaginoidea virens is emerging as a devastating disease of rice (Oryza sativa) worldwide; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying U. virulence and pathogenicity remain largely unknown. Here we demonstrate that small cysteine-rich secreted protein SCRE6 in translocated into host cells during infection factor. Knockout leads to attenuated rice. its homologs function novel family mitogen-activated kinase phosphatases harboring no canonical phosphatase...
<title>Abstract</title> Zinc (Zn<sup>2+</sup>) is an essential micronutrient that regulates plant growth, immunity, and antiviral defense mechanisms. However, its limited bioavailability often necessitates excessive application, resulting in inefficiencies production environmental stress. In response, we propose environmentally friendly sustainable approach to enhance the utilization of Zn<sup>2+</sup>. We developed CNC@PDA@Zn<sup>2+</sup> by embedding Zn<sup>2+</sup> into polydopamine (PDA)...
Rice false smut caused by Ustilaginoidea virens is becoming one of the most recalcitrant rice diseases worldwide. However, molecular mechanisms underlying immunity against U. remain unknown. Using genetic, biochemical and disease resistance assays, we demonstrated that xb24 knockout lines generated in non-Xa21 background exhibit an enhanced susceptibility to fungal pathogens Magnaporthe oryzae. Consistently, flg22- chitin-induced oxidative burst expression pathogenesis-related genes were...
Abstract Plant immunity is fine-tuned to balance growth and defense. However, little yet known about molecular mechanisms underlying immune homeostasis in rice (Oryza sativa). In this study, we reveal that a calcium-dependent protein kinase (CDPK), OsCPK17, interacts with stabilizes the receptor-like cytoplasmic (RLCK) OsRLCK176, close homolog of Arabidopsis thaliana BOTRYTIS-INDUCED KINASE 1 (AtBIK1). Oxidative burst pathogenesis-related gene expression triggered by pathogen-associated...
