Identifying Novel Resistance Genes in Newly Introduced Blast Resistant Rice Germplasm
2006-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Blast, Magnaporthe oryzae B. Couch, and sheath blight, Rhizoctonia solani Kühn, are major fungal diseases of cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.) in the USA. Resistance to U.S. M. oryzae races was observed in 91 newly introduced rice accessions, suggesting these accessions are possible sources of novel blast resistance genes (Pi-genes) that could be incorporated into U.S. rice cultivars. The genes Pi-ta and Pi-b have...
