Plants rely on various receptor-like proteins and receptor-like kinases to recognize and defend against invading pathogens. However, research on the role of receptor-like proteins in plant antiviral defense, particularly in rice-virus interactions, is limited. In this study, we identified a receptor-like gene, , which was significantly induced upon infection with southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV) infection. A viral inoculation assay showed that the OsBAP1 knockout mutant exhibited enhanced resistance to SRBSDV infection, indicating that OsBAP1 plays a negatively regulated role in rice resistance to viral infection. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the genes involved in plant-pathogen interactions, plant hormone signal transduction, oxidation-reduction reactions, and protein phosphorylation pathways were significantly enriched in mutant plants (). Quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) analysis further demonstrated that some defense-related genes were significantly induced during SRBSDV infection in mutants. Our findings provide new insights into the role of receptor-like proteins in plant immune signaling pathways, and demonstrate that OsBAP1 negatively regulates rice resistance to SRBSDV infection.

Agricultural insects play a crucial role in transmitting plant viruses and host a considerable number of insect-specific viruses (ISVs). Among these insects, the white-backed planthoppers (WBPH; , Hemiptera: Delphacidae) are noteworthy rice pests and are responsible for disseminating the southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV), a significant rice virus. In this study, we analyzed WBPH transcriptome data from public sources and identified three novel viruses.

Many plant arboviruses are persistently transmitted by piercing-sucking insect vectors. However, it remains largely unknown how conserved insect Toll immune response exerts antiviral activity and how plant viruses antagonize it to facilitate persistent viral transmission. Here, we discover that southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV), a devastating planthopper-transmitted rice reovirus, activates the upstream Toll receptors expression but suppresses the downstream MyD88-Dorsal-defensin cascade, resulting in the attenuation of insect Toll immune response.

During the field surveys in Jiangsu Province, China, contiguous patches of rice plants with varying degrees of dwarfing, wax-white or dark brown enations at the base of stems, and abnormal heading symptoms were observed in the fields located in Jiangning District in Nanjing City, Jurong County in Zhenjiang City, and Zhangjiagang County in Suzhou City. Through molecular analyses, the presence of southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus was confirmed in symptomatic rice plants. The infections of other rice viruses that cause dwarfing were also ruled out.

Plant viruses have multiple strategies to counter and evade the host's antiviral immune response. However, limited research has been conducted on the antiviral defense mechanisms commonly targeted by distinct types of plant viruses. In this study, we discovered that NUCLEAR FACTOR-YC (NF-YC) and NUCLEAR FACTOR-YA (NF-YA), 2 essential components of the NF-Y complex, were commonly targeted by viral proteins encoded by 2 different rice (Oryza sativa L.
