Molecular evolution of the rice blast resistance gene Pi-ta in invasive weedy rice in the USA. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 The Pi-ta gene in rice has been effectively used to control rice blast disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae worldwide. Despite a number of studies that reported the Pi-ta gene in domesticated rice and wild species, little is known about how the Pi-ta ...

Expression of genes in cultivated rice and weedy rice in competition
Australian Journal of Crop Science, 2016 The competition for resources such as light and nitrogen between red rice and cultivated rice can trigger responses in plants that interfere with growth and productivity as well as the expression of genes related to competition-induced stress. Due to its sensitivity, accuracy, and specificity, real-time reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) is an ...
