Molecular Mapping and Transfer of Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) for Sheath Blight Resistance from Wild Rice Oryza nivara to Cultivated Rice (Oryza sativa L.).

Abstract excerpt

Sheath blight (ShB) is the most serious disease of rice (Oryza sativa L.), caused by the soil-borne fungus Rhizoctonia solani Kühn (R. solani). It poses a significant threat to global rice productivity, resulting in approximately 50% annual yield loss. Managing ShB is particularly challenging due to the broad host range of the pathogen, its necrotrophic nature, the emergence of new races, and the limited...
