Development of elite rice with broad‐spectrum resistance through pyramiding of key resistance gene and simultaneously editing multiple susceptibility genes

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

Knocking out three susceptibility genes (Pi21, Bsr-d1, and Xa5) in a rice breeding line that contains the resistance Piz-t produced enhanced broad-spectrum resistance against the fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae and the bacterial pathogen Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae without obvious growth penalty.
