OsNAC111, a Blast Disease–Responsive Transcription Factor in Rice, Positively Regulates the Expression of Defense-Related Genes

Plants respond to pathogen attack by transcriptionally regulating defense-related genes via various types of transcription factors. We identified a transcription factor in rice, OsNAC111, belonging to the TERN subgroup of the NAC family that was transcriptionally upregulated after rice blast fungus...
