As with the majority of hemibiotrophic fungal pathogens, rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae uses highly specialized infection structures called appressoria for plant penetration. Appressoria differentiated from germ tubes rely on enormous turgor pressure to directly penetrate cell, in which process lipid metabolism plays a critical role. In this study, we characterized MoPAH1 gene M. oryzae, encoding putative conserved phosphatidate phosphatase. The expression was up-regulated during...
The widely used rice variety Lijiangxintuanheigu (LTH) shows a universal susceptibility to thousands of Magnaporthe oryzae isolates, the causal agent devastating blast, making LTH an ideal line in resistance (R) gene cloning. However, underlying genetic mechanism has not been fully revealed because lack high-quality genome. Here, we took genomic approach together with experimental assays investigate LTH's blast. Using Nanopore long reads, assembled chromosome-level Millions variants were...
Phosphatidic acid (PA) functions as a cell membrane component and signaling molecule in plants. PA metabolism has multiple routes, one of which is converted into cytidine diphosphate diacylglycerol (CDP-DAG) by CDP-DAG synthases (CDSs). CDS genes are highly conserved Here, we found that knock-down the gene enhanced resistance Arabidopsis thaliana to pathogens, with growth penalty. When leaves were treated chitin or flg22, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production cds mutants was significantly...

Plant pathogens cause devastating diseases, leading to serious losses agriculture. Mechanistic understanding of pathogenesis plant lays the foundation for development fungicides disease control. Mitophagy, a specific form autophagy, is important fungal virulence. The role cardiolipin, mitochondrial signature phospholipid, in mitophagy and largely unknown pathogenic fungi. functions enzymes involved cardiolipin biosynthesis relevant inhibitors were assessed using set assays, including genetic...
Phosphatidic acid (PA) is considered as a second messenger that interacts with protein kinases, phosphatases and NADPH oxidases, amplifying the signal to initiate plant defense signaling responses (Li Wang, 2019). In rice, mutation of RBL1 causes accumulation PA, enhancing multipathogen resistance (Sha et al., 2023). our previous study, we attempted rescue rbl1 mutant by overexpressing phosphatidate phosphohydrolase ( PAH ) genes. However, overexpression PAH2 reduced PA level but did not...
This study addresses the critical need for new antibacterial drugs in face of bacterial multidrug resistance resulting from antibiotic overuse. It highlights significance antimicrobial peptides as essential components innate immunity animals and plants, which have been proven effective against multidrug-resistant bacteria are difficult to develop against. successfully synthesizes a broad-spectrum peptide, BsR1, with strong inhibitory activities various Gram-positive Gram-negative bacteria....
