The brassinosteroid-SIGNALING KINASE (BSK) belongs to the receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase XII subgroup. BSK1 regulates development and immunity in  Arabidopsis . However, the function of rice ( Oryza sativa ) BSK1 is largely unknown. Here, we report that the expression level of  OsBSK1-2  is induced after a chitin or fagellin22 (flg22) treatment. Silencing  OsBSK1-2  in rice results in compromised responses to chitin- or flg22-triggered immunity and resistance to  Magnaporthe oryzae , but does not alter the plant’s architecture nor reduce plant responses to brassinosteroid signaling. Our study reveals that OsBSK1-2 functions as a major regulator in rice plant immunity.
