14‐3‐3 proteins: Central hubs in plant development and stress adaptation

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 8, Page 3107-3132, August 2026.
This review highlights recent advances elucidating the important roles of 14‐3‐3 proteins in regulating phytohormone networks, biotic and abiotic stress tolerance, growth‐defense trade‐offs, and evolutionary adaptations. Furthermore, it provides a forward‐looking perspective on 14‐3‐3 biology and the development of climate‐resilient smart crops under ...

Parasexual Recombination in Magnaporthe oryzae

open access: yesJapan Agricultural Research Quarterly: JARQ, 2011
Parasexual recombination is thought to be one of the causes of variation in the pathogenicity of rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae, which breaks down resistant rice varieties. In this study, the virulence and fitness of parasexual recombinants of M. oryzae were examined in vitro and in the field.

Accessory regions and horizontal gene transfer shape the evolution of clonal Colletotrichum nymphaeae infecting strawberry

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 4, Page 2186-2205, August 2026.
Genetic diversity of strawberry‐infecting Colletotrichum isolates. Summary Rapid adaptation in fungal plant pathogens is often attributed to sexual recombination, yet many important pathogens are largely clonal. We investigated how genetic and phenotypic diversity arises in the predominantly asexual fungus Colletotrichum nymphaeae, the main cause of ...

Transformation of Magnaporthe oryzae v1

open access: yes
Magnaporthe oryzae has been used as a genetically tractable model system for plant-pathogen interactions for more than 30 years. Genetic modifications such as gene deletions, complementations or fluorescence-tagging of proteins are regularly used to investigate the function of genes.

Unfolding Plant Defence: Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Signalling at the Plant‐Pathogen Interface

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 8, Page 4799-4822, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response, a conserved proteostasis network, has emerged as a central hub that reprograms plant immunity during pathogen attack. This review synthesises how plants harness ER‐stress signalling to mount multilayered defences and how pathogens have evolved counterstrategies to subvert these pathways.

An organ-specific view on nonhost resistance

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Nonhost resistance (NHR) is the resistance of plants to a plethora of non-adapted pathogens and is considered as one of the most robust resistance mechanisms of plants. Studies have shown that the efficiency of resistance in general and NHR in particular

Negative Regulators of Rice Agronomic Traits: Functional Insights and Applications in Genome Editing‐Based Breeding

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 8, Page 4984-5001, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Rice is the staple crop for more than half of the global population, and improving grain yield, grain quality, and stress resistance remain central goals of modern rice breeding. Among current precision breeding strategies, genome editing has created new opportunities for crop improvement, but its success depends heavily on the selection of ...

RNA Silencing in the Phytopathogenic Fungus Magnaporthe oryzae

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2003
Systematic analysis of RNA silencing was carried out in the blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae (formerly Magnaporthe grisea) using the enhanced green fluorescence protein (eGFP) gene as a model.

Circular RNAs in Lotus japonicus Responses to Nutrient Supply and Mesorhizobium Symbiosis

open access: yesPlant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 4823-4839, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Symbiotic interactions between legumes and rhizobia enable nitrogen fixation under low nutrient conditions. The establishment and function of symbiotic interactions require coordinated changes in gene expression in both the host and the microbe. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous gene‐specific molecules that can regulate transcription and

Time for a blast: genomics of Magnaporthe grisea

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, 2002
Summary The rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea causes one of the most destructive diseases of rice. Genetic studies of this important pathogen during the past decade have made it an excellent system for investigating fungal–plant interactions.
