Diterpene Biosynthesis in Rice Blast Fungus Magnaporthe

open access: yesFrontiers in Fungal Biology, 2022
Plant-pathogenic fungi harbor various specialized metabolites including diterpenoids that function as hormones and virulence factors. The fungus Magnaporthe oryzae is the causal agent of rice blast disease and can infect over fifty grass species. We demonstrate that rice blast fungi encode two diterpene synthases that produce normal pimara-8,15-diene ...

Host-Induced Gene Silencing of a Multifunction Gene Sscnd1 Enhances Plant Resistance Against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Sclerotinia sclerotiorum is a devastating necrotrophic fungal pathogen and has a substantial economic impact on crop production worldwide. Magnaporthe appressoria-specific (MAS) proteins have been suggested to be involved in the appressorium formation in

The ZmRACK1–ZmCDPK7–ZmAPX1 module regulates plant antiviral immunity

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
In maize, ZmRACK1 acts as a scaffold protein that bridges the cyclin‐dependent kinase ZmCDPK7 and the ascorbate peroxidase ZmAPX1, promoting ZmAPX1 activity to mitigate MCMV infection. Upon viral infection, P31 obstructs formation of the ZmRACK1‐ZmCDPK7‐ZmAPX1 complex, inhibiting ZmCDPK7‐mediated ZmAPX1 activity and promoting reactive oxygen species ...

G-andC-banding in Magnaporthe grisea chromosomes

open access: yes, 2001
Chromosome of Magnaporthe grisea were observed using G- and C-banding methods. The use of G-banding chromosome of M. grisea revealed that the typical G-band at promethaphase to early niethaphase stage could be observed. The G-banding method of M.

Structure-function analysis of Rgs1 in Magnaporthe oryzae: role of DEP domains in subcellular targeting. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Rgs1, a prototypical Regulator of G protein Signaling, negatively modulates the cyclic AMP pathway thereby influencing various aspects of asexual development and pathogenesis in the rice-blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae.

Disabling a conserved module confers broad‐spectrum resistance

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This commentary reviews the discovery by Yuan et al. of a conserved susceptibility module where fungal Gas2 stabilizes host SnRK1β1A to suppress nuclear immunity in rice. It discusses the mechanism for broad‐spectrum resistance via genome editing and considers the essential balance between enhanced defense and associated agronomic trade‐offs.

Decoding MAPK cascades in plant immunity: Activation, regulation, integration, and pathogen manipulation

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review focuses on mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) activation and summarizes how plants regulate and integrate MAPK signaling in modulating plant immune responses. It also examines the effectors pathogens have evolved to manipulate MAPK activation and thereby inhibit plant immunity.

Strigolactone‐mediated architecture regulation and stress resilience: Insights and innovations for crop breeding

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
This review summarizes the discovery, biosynthesis, and transport of strigolactone, and the D14‐D3/MAX2‐D53/SMXLs signaling module. It highlights diverse roles of strigolactone in plant architecture, stress responses, and crop breeding, including species‐specific functions, hormonal crosstalk, and agricultural applications.
