Harnessing Flowering Bund Plants Through Ecological Engineering to Improve Biological Control of Tungro Virus Vectors in Indonesian Rice Fields Agroecosystem. [PDF]

Int J Food Sci
Ecological engineering (EE) has emerged as a promising strategy for managing insect pests in rice ecosystems by reducing dependency on chemical pesticides. However, the survival of parasitoids and predators in rice habitats is often limited due to a lack of refuge and food sources.

OsRF2b interacting with OsbZIP61 modulates nitrogen use efficiency and grain yield via heterodimers in rice. [PDF]

Plant Biotechnol J
Summary Nitrogen (N) is critical for crop growth, and enhancing nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) is essential for achieving high grain yields and quality in crop production. In this study, we identified two transcription factors OsRF2b and OsbZIP61, which localize in the nucleus and function as negative regulators of NUE and grain yield in rice.

Unlocking agro-ecosystem sustainability: exploring the bottom-up effects of microbes, plants, and insect herbivores. [PDF]

Integr Zool
Microorganism‐released metabolites, proteins, or toxins modulate plant‐based targets to regulate physiological processes such as phytohormone and nutrition balance and stress resistance. Microbes that affect plant physiological processes regulate the visual, olfactory, and gustatory cues associated with plants to attract or repel insect herbivores and ...

PREFERENCE TEST OF GREEN LEAFHOPPER (Nephotettix virescens Distant) TO SOME TUNGRO-RESISTANT PROMISING LINES

Agric, 2020
Preference test of green leafhopper (GLH) Nephotettix virescens Distant to some tungro-resistant promising lines. Tungro is the most important diseases of the rice plant, caused by two types of viruses, namely Rice Tungro Bacilliform Virus (RTBV) and ...

Short ORF-dependent ribosome shunting operates in an RNA picorna-like virus and a DNA pararetrovirus that cause rice tungro disease. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2012
Rice tungro disease is caused by synergistic interaction of an RNA picorna-like virus Rice tungro spherical virus (RTSV) and a DNA pararetrovirus Rice tungro bacilliform virus (RTBV).

Characterization of a foxtail mosaic virus vector for gene silencing and analysis of innate immune responses in Sorghum bicolor

Molecular Plant Pathology, Volume 24, Issue 1, Page 71-79, January 2023., 2023
This study demonstrates that a foxtail mosaic virus vector induces robust gene silencing in sorghum through targeting of two marker genes and a subgroup of receptor‐like cytoplasmic kinases with roles in bacterial defence. Abstract Sorghum is vulnerable to many biotic and abiotic stresses, which cause considerable yield losses globally.

Knock‐down of gene expression throughout meiosis and pollen formation by virus‐induced gene silencing in Arabidopsis thaliana

The Plant Journal, Volume 111, Issue 1, Page 19-37, July 2022., 2022
SUMMARY Through the inactivation of genes that act during meiosis it is possible to direct the genetic make‐up of plants in subsequent generations and optimize breeding schemes. Offspring may show higher recombination of parental alleles resulting from elevated crossover (CO) incidence, or by omission of meiotic divisions, offspring may become ...

Targeted suppression of gibberellin biosynthetic genes ZmGA20ox3 and ZmGA20ox5 produces a short stature maize ideotype

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 20, Issue 6, Page 1140-1153, June 2022., 2022
Summary Maize is one of the world’s most widely cultivated crops. As future demands for maize will continue to rise, fields will face ever more frequent and extreme weather patterns that directly affect crop productivity. Development of environmentally resilient crops with improved standability in the field, like wheat and rice, was enabled by shifting
