The discovery and application of genome editing introduced a new era of plant breeding by giving researchers efficient tools for the precise engineering of crop genomes. Here we demonstrate the power of genome editing for engineering broad-spectrum disease resistance in rice (Oryzasativa). We first ...

(Nature, doi:10.1038/s41586-023-06205-2, 2023), focusing on the cloning of theRBL1gene from rice, which is associated with lesion mimic mutant (LMM) traits. TheRBL1gene encodes a cytidine diphosphate diacylglycerol (CDP-DAG) synthase and plays a crucial role in regulating cell death and ...
Cardiolipin synthase-null mutant strain was not able to adapt to thermal stress, as lack of cardiolipin makes mtDNA more prone to damage under such stress conditions. This protective effect of cardiolipin under stress was linked to its role in binding to mitochondrial nucleoids and guiding their ...
