Benefits and potential trade-offs associated with yeast-like symbionts during virulence adaptation in a phloem-feeding planthopper by Horgan, Finbarr G., Ferrater, Jedeliza B.

“…This study investigates the role of yeast‐like symbionts (YLS) in virulence adaptation and host plant switching among populations of the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål) (Hemiptera: Delphacidae), that were selected on various rice [Oryza sativa L. (Poaceae)] lines differing in their resistance against herbivores. …”

Mapping QTLs for reproductive-stage drought resistance traits using an advanced backcross population in upland rice by Sellamuthu, Reena, Ranganathan, Chandrababu, Serraj, Rachid

“…The reproductive stage of development is the most drought sensitive, and water deficits at that time can lead to a drastic yield reduction in rice (Oryza sativa L.). Understanding the genetic and physiological bases of yield and yield components under reproductive‐stage drought stress will help in the development of resilient cultivars. …”
