Reduced methane emissions in transgenic rice genotypes are associated with altered rhizosphere microbial hydrogen cycling - Nature Communications

Abstract Rice paddies significantly contribute to atmospheric methane (CH4). Here, we show that two independent rice genotypes overexpressing genes for PLANT PEPTIDES CONTAINING SULFATED TYROSINE (PSY) reduce cumulative CH4 emissions by 38% (PSY1) and 58% (PSY2) over 70 days of growth compared with controls.

| PNAS Verified
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) serve as a universal framework to address global challenges—ranging from poverty to climate action and sustainable ecosystems. Scholarly research is vital in achieving these goals and providing the scientific foundation necessary for informed policies, innovation, and real-world impact.

The elite haplotype OsGATA8-H coordinates nitrogen uptake and productive tiller formation in rice - Nature Genetics

|
By Weijie Tang, Wei Xuan, William Terzaghi, Pamela Ronald, Haiyang Wang, Chunming Wang
| Nature Verified
Abstract Excessive nitrogen promotes the formation of nonproductive tillers in rice, which decreases nitrogen use efficiency (NUE). Developing high-NUE rice cultivars through balancing nitrogen uptake and the formation of productive tillers remains a long-standing challenge, yet how these two processes are coordinated in rice remains elusive. Here we identify the transcription factor OsGATA8 as a key coordinator of nitrogen uptake and tiller formation in rice.
