The paper identifies a novel OsMAPK6 allele in rice linked to disease resistance and constitutive immunity against bacterial blight.

This study identifies a major QTL for early heading in rice and links it to candidate genes and SNP markers that can improve climate resilience and yield.

This study identifies TAL9b as a Xoo effector targeting OsS5H/FNS-03g, a bifunctional protein whose product apigenin promotes bacterial blight in rice.

This study identifies genomic and molecular mechanisms of rice tolerance to yellow stem borer using multi-omics approaches and develops markers for marker-assisted breeding.

This paper simplifies and improves SARS-CoV-2 detection by removing the RNA isolation step in RT-PCR, making it faster, cheaper, and more efficient without sacrificing accuracy.
