Circadian Regulation of the Rice Immune Response during Rice Blast Infection via Metabolic and Calcium Signaling

alleviated, whereas the calcium ion chelator EGTA aggravated, the phenotypes of rice blasts, suggesting their role in regulating the circadian clock-mediated immune response in rice. Our study highlighted the significance of circadian regulation in rice blast-induced immune modulation, which may contribute to developing immunomodulators and the formulation of chronobiology-based precise therapeutic regimens.
