ABSTRACT Striped stem borer (SSB; Chilo suppressalis Walker) is one of the most destructive pests in rice production. Previous studies have demonstrated that SSB infestation induces transcription of OsT5H (tryptamine‐5‐hydroxylase) and biosynthesis of serotonin, a newly recognised phytohormone, and that disruption of serotonin biosynthesis ...

ABSTRACT Jasmonate (JA) regulates defence responses in plants. However, JA‐induced defence often results in growth inhibition. This process is largely mediated by MYC2, the master regulator of JA signalling. Nevertheless, the underlying molecular mechanisms have not yet been fully uncovered.

Asian wild rice is a hybrid swarm with extensive gene flow and feralization from domesticated rice [PDF]
The domestication history of rice remains controversial, with multiple studies reaching different conclusions regarding its origin(s). These studies have generally assumed that populations of living wild rice, O.

ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

A Non‐Host Pathogen Elicitor Induces Blast Resistance Mediated by OsNAC78‐Pir7b Module in Rice
ABSTRACT Plants exhibit broad‐spectrum and persistent resistance induced by non‐host pathogens. Previous studies have found that syringolin A secreted by Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae can activate the expression of defense‐related gene Pir7b in non‐host rice, but the underlying mechanism remains ambiguous.

ABSTRACT Cereal crops are fundamental to global food security, but their production is increasingly challenged by rising demand and the unpredictable impacts of climate change. Among the most limiting and interdependent resources sustaining yields are nitrogen and water.

ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.
