Rice (Oryza sativa) is a crucial crop, achieving high yield concurrent pathogen resistance
remains a challenge. Transcription factors play roles in growth and abiotic tolerance …

The phytochrome-interacting factor-like gene OsPIL15 negatively regulates grain size and
1000-grain weight, but its regulatory effect on rice quality traits is unknown. Here, knock …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small noncoding RNAs that play important roles in plant
growth and development as well as in stress responses. However, little is known about their …

Abstract Background Rice (Oryza sativa) feeds half of the world's population. Rice grain
yield and quality which are constrained by diseases and mineral nutritions have important …

OsSIZ1, a small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) E3 ligase, exerts regulatory influences on
the developmental responses and phosphate (Pi) homeostasis in rice (Oryza sativa) …

The plant pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae poses a significant threat to global food security,
and its management through the cultivation of resistant varieties and crop husbandry …

Abstract Rice ARGONAUTE2 (OsAGO2) is a core component of the rice RNA‐induced
silencing complex (RISC), which is repressed by Magnaporthe oryzae (M. oryzae) infection …

Magnaporthe oryzae is a potent fungus that adversely affects rice yield. Combinatorial
techniques of prevention, toxic chemicals, and fungicide are used to remedy rice blast …

Leucine-rich repeat receptor-like kinases (LRR-RLKs) are an important subfamily of receptor-
like kinases (RLKs) in plants that play key roles in sensing different biotic and abiotic stress …

Key message OsICS1 but not OsICS1-L mediates the rice response to Xoo inoculation, with
its overexpression increasing resistance against this pathogen. OsICS1 but not OsICS-L is …
