All Roads Lead to Rome: Pathways to Engineering Disease Resistance in Plants
Crops lost to diseases necessitate a deeper understanding of plant immunity and the development of disease resistance. Here, the arms‐race between plants and pathogens is briefly described, and a comprehensive overview of the current and emerging strategies for engineering disease resistance in plants is provided.

Pyricularia oryzae isolates from wild rice species are pathogenic to cultivated rice, but each rice species hosts a different pathogen population, showing that wild rice is a minor source of blast inoculum for cultivated rice. Abstract Blast is a devastating disease of rice caused by the fungus Pyricularia oryzae. The role of infected straw and seed as

Global potential distributions and conservation status of rice wild relatives
Rice wild relatives (RWR) provide valuable genetic resources for modern rice breeding, yet knowledge gaps constrain their conservation and further utilization. To address these gaps, the potential distributions of 22 RWR taxa were modeled, and their conservation statuses were assessed.

Summary Root architecture and function are critical for plants to secure water and nutrient supply from the soil, but environmental stresses alter root development. The phytohormone jasmonic acid (JA) regulates plant growth and responses to wounding and other stresses, but its role in root development for adaptation to environmental challenges had not ...

Wild Rice Genetic Resources in Cameroon: A Review
Rice is one of the most consumed cereals in Cameroon. The in-country production cannot satisfy the population needs. However, rice can grow in the five agro ecological zones of the country. Wild rice species are important sources of genes responsible for
