Abstract excerpt
Rice blast, caused by the fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae, constitutes a critical threat to global rice production. Leveraging functional genes from germplasm resources to breed resistant varieties remains the most effective and sustainable strategy for blast control. Here, we identify a GATA transcription factor, OsGATA16, as a candidate regulator of blast resistance by genome-wide association study (GWAS)...
