The Molecular Mechanisms of Rice Resistance to the Bacterial Blight Pathogen, Xanthomonas oryzae pathovar oryzae
2011-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Xanthomonas oryzae pathovar oryzae (Xoo) causes bacterial blight (BB) of rice (Oryza sativa) and is one of the major constraints for sustainable production of this staple crop worldwide. The use of resistant rice cultivars is the most economical and effective method to control this disease. Here we review the tremendous progress that has been made in elucidating molecular mechanisms of resistance against BB in the...
