A pathogen lncRNA secreted into rice sequesters a host miRNA for virulence

Nature, Published online: 20 May 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10572-x

A fungal long non-coding RNA from Magnaporthe oryzae translocates into rice cells to sequester a host microRNA that normally represses PKR1, a negative immunity regulator, thereby facilitating infection and revealing a widespread RNA-based pathogen–host interaction mechanism.

Pixelated quantum-dot superlattice LEDs

Nature, Published online: 15 April 2026; doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10392-z

Scalable fabrication of ordered perovskite quantum dot superlattices enables high-efficiency, ultrahigh-resolution LEDs and active-matrix displays with greatly improved brightness, stability and device lifetime.
