MicorRNA528 Contributes to Rice Resistance against Herbivorous Insects.
Rice production is chronically threatened by the piercing‑sucking brown planthopper (BPH) and the chewing striped stem borer (SSB). Although BPH‑resistance genes have been cloned, no endogenous SSB‑resistance gene is known, and characterized pest‑responsive microRNAs mostly confer pest‑specific rather than broad‑spectr...
