Abstract excerpt
Sheath blight disease of rice caused by Rhizoctonia solani AG1-IA, is a major fungal disease responsible for huge loss to grain yield and quality. The major limitation of achieving persistent and reliable resistance against R. solani is the governance of disease resistance trait by many genes. Therefore, functional characterization of new genes involved in sheath blight resistance is necessary to understand the...
