Emerging Viral Threats in Rice: A Decade of Discovery and Implications for Crop Protection

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 12, Page 8702-8711, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Rice viral diseases pose severe threats to global food security, with over 20 viruses identified in China alone. The advent of high‐throughput sequencing has accelerated the discovery of novel viruses in cultivated and wild rice, unveiling previously undetected threats.

The JAK-STAT pathway promotes persistent viral infection by activating apoptosis in insect vectors.

PLoS Pathogens, 2023
The Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway is an evolutionarily conserved signaling pathway that can regulate various biological processes.

Banana breeding by genome design

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 67, Issue 11, Page 2816-2847, November 2025.
Bananas and plantains likely originated from hybridizations of four wild Musa species. This review highlights advances in banana genomics, genetics, and breeding, emphasizing genome sequencing breakthroughs and genomic‐assisted tools like selection and gene editing, and explores future prospects for improving key agronomic traits.

Comparative proteomic analysis reveals the cross-talk between the responses induced by H2O2 and by long-term rice black-streaked dwarf virus infection in rice. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) could be produced during the plant-virus compatible interaction. However, the cell responses regulated by the enhanced H2O2 in virus infected plant are largely unknown.

Emerging Roles of Receptor‐Like Proteins in Plant Immunity: Crosstalk, Signalling Networks and Prospects for Disease Resistance Breeding

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 26, Issue 11, November 2025.
RLPs are pivotal immune hubs, interfacing with RLKs in layered defence networks. Understanding their cross‐talk and evolution unlocks potential for engineering durable resistance in crops. ABSTRACT Receptor‐like proteins (RLPs) are cell‐surface receptors that recognise pathogen‐ or damage‐associated molecular patterns to activate immune responses, and ...

The phytohormone jasmonic acid is involved in rice resistance to Southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus

Crop Journal
Viruses are significant pathogens causing severe plant infections and crop losses globally. The resistance mechanisms of rice to viral diseases, particularly Southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV), remain poorly understood.

Differentiation Trajectory of Virus‐Induced Tumour Cells in Rice Revealed by Single‐Cell RNA Sequencing

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 11, Page 4794-4812, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Many plant viruses trigger abnormal differentiation and development of host cells, causing distinct symptoms. Here, in a single‐cell RNA sequence analysis, we find transcriptional heterogeneity between cells from rice leaf sheaths that are infected with rice black streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV) and from those that are virus‐free.

An Apple Susceptibility‐Related LRR Receptor‐Like Kinase MdRLKT21 Activates Plant Immunity by Hijacking a Trans‐Kingdom Fungal microRNA‐Like RNA

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 38, October 13, 2025.
The apple susceptibility‐related LRR‐RLK MdRLKT21 competitively binds to fungal sRNA effectors and subsequently activates defenses by salvaging the expression of MdRLKT1 and MdRLKT2 and thereby releasing the resistance protein MdRFP1. These findings provide new insights into the molecular mechanism by which plants counteract pathogen‐secreted sRNA ...

Screening of Rice Genes Interacting with p5b of Rice Black-Streaked Dwarf Virus

Rice Science, 2013
Rice black-streaked dwarf virus (RBSDV) is a recognized member of the genus Fijivirus, family Reoviridae. Its genome has ten double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) segments (S1–S10), in which the fifth genome segment (S5) contains two open reading frames (ORFs) with a partially overlapping region.

JA‐responsive R2R3‐type MYB transcription factor OsMYB4P confers broad‐spectrum antiviral immunity in rice

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 10, Page 4602-4617, October 2025.
Summary Jasmonic acid (JA) plays a critical role in antiviral defence in rice, where viral infection activates JA signalling by degrading Jasmonate ZIM domain (JAZ) proteins, thereby releasing transcription factors (TFs) to drive JA‐mediated defence gene expression. While the JA‐responsive TF OsMYC2 has been extensively studied in rice, the involvement
