  • Efficient method for directly modifying endogenous plant proteins remains unavailable. Here, the authors develop a Targeted Condensation-prone-protein Degradation (TCD) strategy using a genetically-encoded degrader and show its application in controlling rice tiller number, flowering and blast resistance.

  • The mechanisms underlying virus perception and immune activation in plants remain poorly understood. Recent work shows that in rice, an E3 ubiquitin ligase senses viral coat proteins to activate the jasmonate signalling pathway by degrading NINJA3, and triggers downstream antiviral defence responses.

  • Rice blast disease caused by Magnaporth oryzae is one of the most devastating diseases to threaten sustainable rice production. This study reveals that OsUBC45, encoding a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, may be useful in improving disease resistance. Overexpression of OsUBC45 enhances resistance to both the blast disease and bacterial leaf blight, while also resulting in a significant increase in grain yield of over 10%.

  • Herbivore cooperation between insect pests can result in substantially greater damage to crops but also constitutes a good target for improved pest control. Liu et al. reveal how the brown plant-hopper and the rice striped stem-borer obtain mutual benefits when feeding on the same rice plant.
