Salivary Protein 1 of Brown Planthopper Is Required for Survival and Induces Immunity Response in Plants

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens Stål, is one of the major pests of rice. It uses its stylet to penetrate rice phloem, feeding on rice sap and causing direct damage to rice or even plant death.

SYP72 interacts with the mechanosensitive channel MSL8 to protect pollen from hypoosmotic shock during hydration

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Pollen grains undergo desiccation and rehydration prior to germination and must survive osmotic shock. Here the authors show that the Qc-SNARE protein SYP72 is required for the localization of the mechanosensitive channel MSL8 at the plasma membrane and ...

Metabolomic prediction of yield in hybrid rice [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, 2016
SummaryRice (Oryza sativa) provides a staple food source for more than 50% of the world's population. An increase in yield can significantly contribute to global food security. Hybrid breeding can potentially help to meet this goal because hybrid rice often shows a considerable increase in yield when compared with pure‐bred cultivars.

Inbred varieties outperformed hybrid rice varieties under dense planting with reducing nitrogen

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Field experiments were conducted over two years to evaluate the effects of planting density and nitrogen input rate on grain yield and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of inbred and hybrid rice varieties.

The Influence of Nitrogen Application Level on Eating Quality of the Two Indica-Japonica Hybrid Rice Cultivars

open access: yesPlants, 2020
Indica-japonica hybrid rice cultivars show great yield potential but poor eating quality and require more nitrogen (N) input relative to japonica rice. However, the effect of N levels on the eating quality of indica-japonica hybrid rice is little known ...

Chitosan Oligosaccharides Mitigate Flooding Stress Damage in Rice by Affecting Antioxidants, Osmoregulation, and Hormones

open access: yesAntioxidants
Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important food crops worldwide. However, during direct seeding, rice is extremely vulnerable to flooding stress, which impairs rice’s emergence and seedling growth and results in a significant yield loss ...

THE HYBRID RICE "BREEDING BY DESIGN"

open access: yes, 2023
The hybrid rice "breeding by design" aims to develop and expand 2-line hybrid rice technology using Thermosensitive Genic Male Sterile (TGMS) in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and ensure that through private companies and public institutions in Africa, this technology reaches farmers and increases their rice yields and income streams.

Transcriptome and methylome interactions in rice hybrids [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2012
DNA methylation is a heritable epigenetic mark that controls gene expression, is responsive to environmental stresses, and, in plants, may also play a role in heterosis. To determine the degree to which DNA methylation is inherited in rice, and how it both influences and is affected by transcription, we performed genome-wide measurements ...
