Marker-assisted Introgression of a Broad-spectrum Resistance Gene, Pi40 Improved Blast Resistance of Two Elite Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Cultivars of Turkey

Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe oryzae is the most serious fungal disease of cultivated rice (Oryza sativa). In serious disease infection, significant yield loss in japonica and indica rice occurs every year worldwide. Of the 100 blast resistance genes identified, majorities are race specific and...
