Marker-assisted pyramiding of two major broad-spectrum bacterial blight resistance genes, <i>Xa21</i> and <i>Xa33</i> into an elite maintainer line of rice, DRR17B

Abstract excerpt
Bacterial blight (BB) disease reduces the yield of rice varieties and hybrids considerably in many tropical rice growing countries like India. The present study highlights the development of durable BB resistance into the background of an elite maintainer of rice, DRR17B, by incorporating two major dominant genes, Xa21 and Xa33 through marker-assisted backcross breeding (MABB). Through two sets of backcrosses, t...
