Genetic Mapping of Sheath Blight Resistance QTLs within Tropical Japonica Rice Cultivars
2009-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Most commercial cultivars of rice (Oryza sativa L.) are susceptible to sheath blight (SB), a devastating fungal disease causing significant losses in grain yield and quality. There are limited sources of genetic resistance adapted to U.S. growing conditions, and no commercial long grain cultivar of rice is currently available in the United States with a high level of SB resistance. Sheath blight resistance has bee...
