Planthopper-Secreted Salivary Calmodulin Acts as an Effector for Defense Responses in Rice
The brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens, BPH) and small brown planthopper (Laodelphax striatellus, SBPH) are major pests of rice (Oryza sativa) in Asia. These piercing-sucking insects secrete saliva into the host during feeding.

The brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål), is a key challenge to rice production in Asia. Outbreaks of planthoppers are associated with excessive fertilizer applications; consequently, we examined planthopper interactions with susceptible ...

Planthopper salivary sheath protein LsSP1 contributes to manipulation of rice plant defenses
Salivary elicitors secreted by herbivorous insects can be perceived by host plants to trigger plant immunity. However, how insects secrete other salivary components to subsequently attenuate the elicitor-induced plant immunity remains poorly understood ...

Sakuranetin protects rice from brown planthopper attack by depleting its beneficial endosymbionts
Significance Herbivorous insects commonly harbor beneficial microbial endosymbionts that provide nutritional benefits to their hosts. These microbes may be the targets of plant antiherbivore defense compounds, but such a role for plant defenses has not ...

Bph30 confers resistance to brown planthopper by fortifying sclerenchyma in rice leaf sheath.
Phloem-feeding insects cause massive losses in agriculture and horticulture. Host plant-mediated resistance to phloem-feeding insects is often mediated by changes in phloem composition to deter insect settling, feeding and viability.

Vitellogenins are essential for the development and fecundity of insects, but these proteins may also betray them, as we show here. We found that the small N-terminal subunit of vitellogenins of the planthopper Nilaparvata lugens (NlVgN) triggers strong ...

Vitellogenin from planthopper oral secretion acts as a novel effector to impair plant defenses.
Vitellogenin (Vg) is a well-known nutritious protein involved in reproduction in nearly all oviparous animals, including insects. Recently, Vg has been detected in saliva proteomes of several piercing-sucking herbivorous arthropods, including the small ...

Brown planthopper (BPH, Nilaparvata lugens Stal) is the most devastating pest of rice in Asia and causes significant yield loss annually. Around 37 BPH resistance genes have been identified so far in indica, African rice varieties along with wild ...

Planthopper-Secreted Salivary Disulfide Isomerase Activates Immune Responses in Plants
The small brown planthopper (Laodelphax striatellus; SBPH) is a piercing-sucking insect that secretes salivary proteins into its plant host during feeding.

Simple Summary Plant defensive compounds are the effective measures for host plants to defend against herbivorous insects, whereas in turn insects evolve an array of detoxifying enzymes to overcome the resistance of these compounds.
