Inducible Overexpression of a Rice Allene Oxide Synthase Gene Increases the Endogenous Jasmonic Acid Level, PR Gene Expression, and Host Resistance to Fungal Infection

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2006
Many studies in dicotyledonous plants have shown that jasmonates, including jasmonic acid (JA) and methyl jasmonate, are important signal molecules involved in induced resistance to pathogen infection and insect herbivory.

The economic importance and control of vertebrate pests of graminaceous crops with particular reference to rice (Oryza sativa) in Nigeria--a review [PDF]

, 1986
Graminaceous crops, especially rice (Orzya sativa), have within the last years in Nigeria, surged to be of utmost economic importance, not in improving the economy but in depleting the country of fast foreign exchange. Attempts at improving and massively

Plant-RRBS, a bisulfite and next-generation sequencing-based methylome profiling method enriching for coverage of cytosine positions [PDF]

, 2017
Background: Cytosine methylation in plant genomes is important for the regulation of gene transcription and transposon activity. Genome-wide methylomes are studied upon mutation of the DNA methyltransferases, adaptation to environmental stresses or ...

Could large‐scale silicon supplementation of crop‐lands mitigate the impacts of climate change?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Intervention strategies that involve supplementing crop‐lands with silicon have significant scope for carbon capture and drought mitigation, offering wide‐ranging societal impacts. These include contributing to decarbonisation goals, enhancing food security, providing economic benefits and reducing environmental damage associated with intensive ...

A framework linking silicon fertilisation, plant silicification and soil carbon cycling

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil organic carbon (SOC) is vital for soil health, food security, and climate change mitigation. We reviewed how silicon (Si) fertilisers, commonly used to improve plant health, may also influence SOC dynamics. We developed a framework linking Si and SOC and discussed the possibility of Si‐mediated plant changes contributing to SOC sequestration.

Signatures of differential selection in chloroplast genome between japonica and indica

Rice, 2019
Background The domestication process of Asian rice (Oryza sativa L.) is complicated. It’s well established that Oryza rufipogon is the ancestor of Asian rice, although the number of domestication events still controversial.

Molecular Basis for Vacuolar Iron Transport by OsVIT2, a Target for Iron Biofortification in Rice

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iron deficiency is the prevalent and most widespread nutritional shortfall for humans, affecting over 30% of the global population and leading to anemia, particularly among preschool‐aged children and pregnant women in developing countries. Simultaneously, while half of the world's population depends on rice (Oryza sativa L.) as a staple food,

Genome-wide characterization and functional analysis of heat shock transcription factors in wild and cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Plant Stress
Due to domestication, the genetic diversity in cultivated rice is lower than that of wild rice species. Recent progress in sequencing the genomes of wild and cultivated rice genus is an important step in identifying their genetic differences associated ...

MGOS: A Resource for Studying Magnaporthe grisea and Oryza sativa Interactions

Molecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2006
The MGOS (Magnaporthe grisea Oryza sativa) web-based database contains data from Oryza sativa and Magnaporthe grisea interaction experiments in which M. grisea is the fungal pathogen that causes the rice blast disease. In order to study the interactions,
