Novel alleles of rice eIF4G generated by CRISPR/Cas9‐targeted mutagenesis confer resistance to Rice tungro spherical virus

Summary Rice tungro disease (RTD) is a serious constraint in rice production across tropical Asia. RTD is caused by the interaction between Rice tungro spherical virus (RTSV) and Rice tungro bacilliform virus. RTSV resistance found in traditional cultivars has contributed to a reduction in the incid...
