[0002] Rice blast and other fungal diseases pose significant threats to crop production, easily leading to large-scale yield reductions, quality declines, and even regional food production crises. Therefore, cultivating crop varieties with superior disease resistance has always been one of the core breeding goals in the global crop industry. Based on existing disease-resistant gene resources, researchers have applied some high-quality disease-resistant genes as target genes in crop disease-resistant genetic engineering breeding practices, successfully breeding new varieties of rice, wheat, corn, and soybeans with significantly improved disease resistance, effectively mitigating the production damage caused by some fungal diseases. However, due to the continuous mutation and differentiation of pathogenic fungi, some disease-resistant genes have lost their resistance, making it difficult to fully meet current disease-resistant breeding needs. Therefore, continuously exploring new disease-resistant genes and enriching the disease-resistant gene resource library remains a crucial task that urgently needs to be promoted in the field of crop disease-resistant breeding.

[0003] Rice yield and quality are directly related to overall food security. Based on practical production and scientific research needs, in-depth exploration of rice disease resistance-related genes will help breed new rice varieties with broad-spectrum disease resistance, high yield and high quality, effectively reducing production losses caused by fungal diseases. This has extremely strong theoretical research value and significant practical production significance. Summary of the Invention
