Blue Light Receptor PHR2‐Mediated Spectrum Antiviral Immunity
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Blue light suppresses RBSDV through the blue‐light receptor ZmPHR2, which interacts with ZmISP in chloroplasts to trigger ROS burst and antiviral defense. The viral effector P6 enhances ZmPHR2–ZmISP interaction, alters their distribution, and suppresses ROS.
