Piriformospora indica is an endophytic fungus that can promote the growth and confer resistance against diverse stresses in host plants by root colonization. However, the effects of P. indica colonization on improving plant resistance to insect pests are still less explored. The brown planthopper (BPH) Nilaparvata lugens is a serious monophagous pest that causes extensive damage to rice plants. Here, we aimed to evaluate the effects of P. indica colonization on rice resistance against BPH.

印度梨形孢菌的定植增强了水稻对褐飞虱的抗性

印度梨形孢是一种内生真菌，可以通过根部定殖促进寄主植物的生长并赋予其对多种胁迫的抵抗力。然而，关于P. indica定植对提高植物抗虫性的影响仍鲜有研究。褐飞虱 (BPH) Nilaparvata lugens是一种严重的单食性害虫，对水稻植物造成广泛损害。在这里，我们的目的是评估P. indica定植对水稻抗褐飞虱的影响。
