Comparative transcriptome and genome analysis between susceptible Zhefang rice variety Diantun 502 and its resistance variety Diantun 506 upon Magnaporthe oryzae infection.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Rice blast caused by Magnaporthe oryzae is the most severe and devastating disease in rice results in serious losses worldwide. Based on this, the interaction between rice and M. oryzae has been studied extensively for decades, but the pathogen always has a negative effect on the new and emerging rice varieties.

Results

The present study employed comparative transcriptome strand-specific RNA sequencing and genome approaches of Diantun rice susceptible (D502) and resistance (D506) lines (leaves) in the presence of blast fungus, M. oryzae. Overall differential expression genes (DEGs) displayed 5838 and 3719 DEGs in D502 and D506, respectively 24hpi, however, the expression of DEGs in the former line was 5113, and in later line it was 4794 after 48hpi. Interestingly,
