eIFiso4G editing confers high and broad-spectrum resistance against rice yellow mottle virus

Florence Auguy, Sophie Chéron, Laurence Dossou, Agnès Pinel‐Galzi, Emilie Thomas, Jamel Aribi, Marcos Giovani Celli, Sébastien Cunnac, Eugénie Hébrard, Laurence Albar

This study shows that knocking out eIFiso4G1 or introducing Indels in its VPg-interacting region confers high resistance to RYMV in rice, with some variants maintaining plant growth.

An atypical class of non-coding small RNAs produced in rice leaves upon bacterial infection

Ganna Reshetnyak, Jonathan M. Jacobs, Florence Auguy, Coline Sciallano, Lisa Claude, Clémence Médina, Álvaro L. Pérez‐Quintero, Aurore Comte, Emilie Thomas, Adam Joseph Bogdanove, Ralf Koebnik, Boris Szurek, Anne Diévart, Christophe Brugidou, Séverine Lacombe, Sébastien Cunnac

The paper identifies a novel class of sRNAs in rice induced by bacterial infection, which may play a role in plant-microbe interactions.
