Inappropriate application of pesticide often triggers molecular alterations in crops, which inadvertently disturbs metabolites and finally affects crop quality. Therefore, understanding the mechanism of action of pesticides on crops is essential for evaluating the potential environmental impact of
Lipoxygenase (LOX) and lipid hydroperoxide-decomposing activity (LHDA) markedly increased in the fifth leaves of rice (Oryza sativa cv Aichiasahi) after infection with the rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe grisea. The increases in the enzyme activities were significantly higher in response to infection
MicroRNAs play crucial roles in plant responses to pathogen infections. The rice blast disease, caused by the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, is the most important disease of rice (Oryza sativa). To explore the microRNA species that participate in rice immunity against the rice blast disease, we compared
Magnaporthe oryzae is a hemibiotrophic fungal pathogen that causes rice (Oryza sativa) blast. Although M. oryzae as a whole infects a wide variety of monocotyledonous hosts, no dicotyledonous plant has been reported as a host. We found that two rice pathogenic strains of M. oryzae, KJ201 and 70-15,
