Beyond its remarkable genome editing ability, the CRISPR/Cas9 effector has also been
utilized in biosensing applications. The recent discovery of the collateral RNA cleavage …

To ensure the food security of future generations and to address the challenge of the 'no
hunger zone'proposed by the FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization), crop production …

Plant diseases are among the major causes of crop yield losses around the world. To confer
disease resistance, conventional breeding relies on the deployment of single resistance (R) …

The use of pathogen-resistant cultivars is expected to increase yield and decrease fungicide
use in agriculture. However, in potato breeding, increased resistance obtained via …

Plant response to pathogen infection varies within a leaf, yet this heterogeneity is not well
resolved. We expose Arabidopsis to Pseudomonas syringae or mock treatment and profile> …

Rice is a global food grain crop for more than one-third of the human population and a
source for food and nutritional security. Rice production is subjected to various stresses; …

To meet increasing global food demand, breeders and scientists aim to improve the yield
and quality of major food crops. Plant diseases threaten food security and are expected to …

Plant diseases reduce crop yields and threaten global food security, making the selection of
disease-resistant cultivars a major goal of crop breeding. Broad-spectrum resistance (BSR) …

Fruits are major sources of essential nutrients and serve as staple foods in some areas of
the world. The increasing human population and changes in climate experienced worldwide …

Wheat crops are frequently devastated by pandemic stripe rust caused by Puccinia
