ABSTRACT Global food demand is predicted to rise anywhere from 59% to 98% by 2050 because of increasing population. However, the continued depletion of natural resources and increasing biotic and abiotic stresses will continue to pose significant threats to global food security in coming years.

Effective control of the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens Stål, across rice-growing regions of Asia has been seriously compromised over the last 2 years by the appearance of widespread resistance to the neonicotinoid insecticide, imidacloprid ...

Sugars as Central Integrators of Plant Immunity and Stress Responses
ABSTRACT Sugars are fundamental metabolites that sustain plant growth and development, but accumulating evidence demonstrates that they also function as regulatory hubs in plant defence. In this review, we synthesise current knowledge on how carbohydrate dynamics coordinate metabolism, signalling, and structural responses to shape plant resistance ...

RNAi Regulator C3PO Promotes Arbovirus Infection in Insect Vectors
Numerous plant and human viruses depend on arthropods for their transmission. RNA interference (RNAi) constitutes a pivotal antiviral immune system in arthropods. Component 3 promoter of RISC (C3PO) complex plays an important regulatory role in small RNA

Genome‐wide prediction of cloned disease resistance homologues across the Oryza genus
Abstract The wild relatives of rice (Oryza sativa L.) represent reservoirs of genetic diversity and potential sources of novel pest and disease resistance. The recent availability of high‐quality Oryza genome assemblies has enabled greater exploration of this diversity across the genus.

Polyphenism Through RNA Chemical Modifications
ABSTRACT Polyphenism, the capacity of a single genotype to produce discrete phenotypes in response to environmental cues, has long served as a model for understanding developmental plasticity. While classical studies have highlighted hormonal signalling and transcription‐factor‐driven gene regulatory networks that mediate these environmentally induced ...

ABSTRACT Jasmonate (JA) regulates defence responses in plants. However, JA‐induced defence often results in growth inhibition. This process is largely mediated by MYC2, the master regulator of JA signalling. Nevertheless, the underlying molecular mechanisms have not yet been fully uncovered.

Future planthopper management: increasing the resilience of rice systems
The problem of planthoppers in rice—the causes of planthopper outbreaks and the ways of reducing the likelihood of this happening—is determined by the dynamic interaction between features of the natural system and decisions made in the human use system ...

Abstract Rice (Oryza sativa L.) production remains central to global food security, particularly across Asia, where both wetland and upland cultivation systems dominate. These agroecosystems face distinct ecological and agronomic constraints that threaten sustainable intensification.
