Toyota Motor Corp. says production at one of its main factories in China remains shut due to a strike, while Honda Motor Co. says operations at a car assembly plant resume following the end of a labor dispute.

Toyota, the world’s largest automaker, said its plant in southern Guangzhou remained closed Thursday due to the strike. Production at the Guangzhou plant, which represents about half of Toyota’s total capacity in China, has been halted since Tuesday.

Honda said production at one of two auto assembly plants at its joint venture Guangqi Honda Automobile Co. resumed Thursday following a one-day suspension caused by labor unrest.
