    The mechanism of manipulating a single miRNA to improve multiple traits in rice revealed
    The mechanism of manipulating a single miRNA to improve rice's multiple traits was revealed.


    Rice is one of the most important food crops in the world.


    Recently, the team of Professor Wang Wenming from Sichuan Agricultural University published a research paper online in Nature-Plants, which not only revealed the mechanism of miR168-AOG1 regulating rice yield, growth period and rice blast resistance, but also improved rice resistance to rice blast at the same time.


    Wang Wenming’s team found that Osa-miR168 (miR168) responds to Magnaporthe grisea infection.


    The changes in miR168-AGO1 regulatory signals composed of miR168 and AGO1 lead to changes in the regulatory signals of multiple miRNA-target genes, and these miRNA-target gene regulatory signals regulate the immunity and growth of rice respectively.
