GENETICS OF BACTERIAL BLIGHT RESISTANCE IN INDIGENOUS GERMPLASM OF M.P. (India)

Abstract

Twenty resistant indigenous rice cultivars from M.P. (India), were found resistant to race groups 1 and 4 of the Philippine bacterial blight. These were studied for the genetics of resistance to the bacterial blight at IRRI. The resistance was found to be monogenic dominant and allelic to Xa-4 gene in all the cultivars studied.
