Development and Validation of an SNP Marker for Identifying Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae Thai Isolates That Break xa5-Mediated Bacterial Blight Resistance in Rice.

Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) is a pathogenic bacterium responsible for bacterial blight (BB) disease in rice, primarily mediated by the interaction between the plant and pathogen. The virulence mechanism involves the activation of the Sugars Will Eventually be Exported Transporter (SWEET) gene family in rice by transcription activator-like effectors derived from Xoo.

Pollen viabilities and gene expression profiles across genomes.

Banana ( spp.) is a major global economic fruit crop. However, cross-pollination from other cultivars grown in nearby plantations results in seeded fruit that exceeds market demand.

Morphological and Molecular Characterizations of (ABB) 'Mali-Ong' in Thailand.

(ABB) 'Mali-Ong' is an economically important banana cultivar in Thailand. We morphologically and molecularly characterized 'Nam Wa Mali-Ong'. Leaf blade width was the only statistically different morphological character among the clones.
