Functional markers for xa5-mediated resistance in rice (Oryza sativa, L.)
2007-05-01
Abstract excerpt
The recent cloning of several agronomically important genes has facilitated the development of functional markers. These markers reside within the target genes themselves and can be used with great reliability and efficiency to identify favorable alleles in a breeding program. Bacterial blight (BB) is a severe rice disease throughout the world that is controlled primarily through use of resistant cultivars. xa5 is...
