Supplementary Figure 3. Small RNAs identified in osa-miR815b/TE-siR815b locus by deep sequencing. Orange, red, blue, light blue, purple, grey, and green arrows indicate 25-, 24-, 23-, 22-, 21-, 20-, and 19-nt small RNA, respectively. Left-pointing arrows indicate small RNA or PCR amplification region in which sequences are identical to the bottom sequence of the fold-back precursor. Some (1, 2, 10, 11, and 12) right-pointing arrows indicate small RNA in which sequences are identical to the top sequence of the fold-back precursor, and the other right-pointing arrows indicate small RNA or PCR amplification region in which sequences are complementary to the bottom sequence of the fold-back precursor. The figures on the arrow tails are reads per million (RMP) sequences in the high-throughput sequencing data. The figures on arrow heads indicate different small RNA or PCR amplification region with different sequences. The data of Nipponbare callus were collected from miRBase (http://www.mirbase.org) and only small RNA with RPM larger than 3.5 are presented.

Supplementary Figure 9. Overexpression of WRKY45-1 and WRKY45-2 influenced rice response to Xoo. Plants were inoculated with Xoo strain PXO347 at the booting stage. Bar represents mean (3–5 replicates) standard deviation. A significant difference was detected between wild-type (WT) Zhonghua 11 (ZH11) and transgenic plants at **P < 0.01 or *P < 0.05. WT carries endogenous WRKY45-1. Positive transgenic plants were determined by PCR amplification of WRKY45-1-oe or WRKY45-2-oe construct using two pairs of primers, TEV/W45-R6 and W45-F6/W45-R6 (Supplementary Table 1). a, Increased susceptibility to Xoo was associated with the existence of WRKY45-1-oe construct in WRKY45-1-oe (ZH11) T1 families. b, Enhanced resistance to Xoo was associated with the existence of WRKY45-2-oe construct in WRKY45-2-oe (ZH11) T1 families.

Supplementary Figure 13. DNA methylation in the intron region of ST1. WT, wild-type Mudanjiang 8; WT1, negative plant from WRKY45-1-oe family. a, WRKY45-1-oe and WRKY45-2-oe plants showed similar levels of CG and CHG contexts of DNA methylation levels. b, The CHH context of DNA methylation level was differently regulated in WRKY45-1-oe and WRKY45-2-oe plants. The circle and solid circle represent non-methylated and methylated cytosine, CG (red), CHG (blue), and CHH (green), respectively.

Supplementary Figure 15. Suppressing ST1 did not change rice response to Xoo.Data represent mean (3–5 replicates for disease area and 3 replicates for expression) standard deviation. a, ST1-RNAi plants showed a similar level of susceptibility to Xoo compared to wild-type (WT) Mudanjiang 8. Plants were inoculated with Xoo strain PXO61 at the booting stage. ST1-RNAi, ST1-RNAi construct. b, ST1 expression was partially suppressed in ST1-RNAi plants.

Supplementary Figure 16. WRKY45-1 and WRKY45-2 interacted with the promoter region of ST1. a, The promoter region of ST1 harbors cis-elements of W and W-like boxes for WRKY transcription factor binding. P3F and P4R are PCR primers used for amplification of promoter fragment for yeast one-hybrid assay. b,Both WRKY45-1 and WRKY45-2 bound to the promoter region of ST1 in yeast one-hybrid assays. The pHIS2:p53 and pGADT7-Rec2:53 are positive controls.
