Journal ArticleDOI

Plant Terpenoids: Biosynthesis and Ecological Functions

TL;DR: This review mainly summarizes the recent research progress in elucidating the ecological role of terpenoids and characterization of the enzymes involved in the terpenoid biosynthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional analysis of rice NPR1-like genes reveals that OsNPR1/NH1 is the rice orthologue conferring disease resistance with enhanced herbivore susceptibility.

TL;DR: This study demonstrates that rice has evolved an SA-mediated systemic acquired resistance similar to that in Arabidopsis, and also provides a practical approach for the improvement of disease resistance without the penalty of decreased herbivore resistance in rice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overexpression of rice WRKY89 enhances ultraviolet B tolerance and disease resistance in rice plants

TL;DR: Functional characterization of a rice WRKY gene, OsWRKY89, and its mutants enhanced resistance to the rice blast fungus and white-backed planthopper as well as tolerance to UV-B irradiation suggest that it plays an important role in response to biotic and abiotic stresses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcriptome analysis of the brown planthopper Nilaparvata lugens.

TL;DR: The obtained BPH transcriptome and DGE profiling data provide comprehensive gene expression information at the transcriptional level that could facilitate the understanding of the molecular mechanisms from various physiological aspects including development, wing dimorphism and sex difference in BPH.
Journal ArticleDOI

Silencing OsHI-LOX makes rice more susceptible to chewing herbivores, but enhances resistance to a phloem feeder

TL;DR: The observation that suppression of JA activity results in increased resistance to an insect indicates that revision of the generalized plant defense models in monocotyledons is required, and may help develop novel strategies to protect rice against insect pests.
