Project description:To explore the molecular mechanisms underlying the rice plant-mediated interaction between brown planthopper (BPH) and striped stem borer (SSB), gene expression changes in rice plant response to infestation by SSB, BPH or both and control were analyzed by RNA-seq.
Project description:Rice, the world’s most important food crop, is attacked by multiple herbivores and pathogens.the rice striped stem borer (SSB) Chilo suppressalis is one of another most important rice insect pests. Here, we use Affymetrix Whole-Genome rice arrays to detect SSB infestation responsive genes.
