Bacterial Blight Resistance in Rice: A Review
Authors(3) :-Mohammad Noroozi, Haj Beheshtizadeh, A-Sattari Bacterial blight disease, caused by Xanthomonas oryzaepv.oryzae(Xoo), is one of the most serious diseases in rice producing areas. For combating the disease, the most effective and economical measure is exploitation of host plant resistance. To date, more than 38 R genes for BB resistance have been reported. Since the chemical control is not effective, the utilization of resistant varieties carrying resistance genes have been considered to be the most effective way to control the disease .With the development of a wide range of molecular techniques, marker assisted breeding is now used to enhance traditional breeding programs to improve crops. Among various PCR based markers, SSR markers are more popular in rice because they are highly informative, mostly mono locus, co-dominant, easily analyzed and cost effective.Besides disease management, bioagents also stimulate plant growth, even if there is no disease, which results in better yield. Antagonistic potential of different bioagents against bacterial leaf blight of rice has been reported by several workers.
