Comprehensive Transcriptomic Analysis of the Molecular Mechanisms Conferring Resistance to Rice Blast in the Elite Restorer Line Fuhui2165.

ABSTRACT: Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe oryzae (M. oryzae), severely threatens global rice production with substantial yield losses, endangering food security and driving demand for resistant varieties. Fuhui2165 (FH2165), an elite restorer line with stable blast resistance, superior agronomic traits, and high grain quality, is valuable for hybrid breeding, but its resistance mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the rice blast resistance and underlying mechanisms in FH2165 and its parental lines (Huahangsimiao/HHSM, Minghui86/MH86, and Shuhui527/SH527) using transcriptome sequencing analysis. Phenotypic analysis revealed that FH2165 and HHSM exhibited stronger resistance compared to MH86 and SH527. Differential expression analysis identified 3886, 2513, 3390, a
