Searching for Germplasm Resistant to Sheath Blight from the USDA Rice Core Collection
2011-07-01
Abstract excerpt
Sheath blight, caused by the fungal pathogen Rhizoctonia solani, is one of the most important and widely distributed diseases capable of infesting numerous crops including rice (Oryza sativa L.). Resistant germplasm with wide variation is essential for controlling this disease via breeding efforts, and genetic background helps design breeding strategies. We used the microchamber method to evaluate the USDA rice co...
