SSR Markers Closely Linked to the Pi-z Locus are Useful for Selection of Blast Resistance in a Broad Array of Rice Germplasm
2006-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Pi-z is a disease resistance gene that has been effectively used to combat a broad-spectrum of races of the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe grisea. Although DNA markers have been reported for selection of the Pi2(t) and Pi-z resistance genes at the Pi-z locus, markers that are more tightly linked to the Pi-z locus would benefit rapid and effective cultivar development. Analysis of the publicly available genome seque...
