🌾 #LabtoLeaf: Not all rice blight is the same.
We created a diagnostic kit that identifies the precise Xoo strain in blight-ridden rice plants. This allows to inform planting strategies and means resistance to be locally matched.

🌾 Lab to Leaf: Insights in Plant Biology 🌱
🌍 Rice feeds more than half the world. But did you know that over 90% of it is grown in Asia? Using USDA's Rice Outlook (buff.ly/w9IYfTy) you can have a closer look at the yield production of different countries on the globe.

🌾 #LabtoLeaf: How does rice survive floods? It waits for drier times.
The SUB1A gene, discovered in the Indian landrace FR13A, helps rice conserve energy underwater through a survival strategy called quiescence: it pauses growth until floodwaters recede.

#LabtoLeaf: What causes blight in rice?
The bacterium Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) highjacks the plant's sugar transporters to promote its own growth instead. This leads to leaf lesions up to total yield loss, affecting farmers world wide.

🌾 #LabtoLeaf: Not all rice is the same!
Oryza sativa, the global staple, from Basmati to Swarna and IR64.
Oryza glaberrima, Africa’s resilient rice, rooted in tradition and adapted to tough soils and drought.
At #HealthyCrops, we're working with lines like Komboka & IR64.
