Abstract Rice blast disease is one of the most devastating diseases of rice
(Oryza sativa L.) caused by the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae (M. oryzae), and
neck blast is the most destructive phase of this illness. The underlying molecular
mechanisms of rice blast resistance are not well known. Thus, we collected 150
rice varieties from different ecotypes in China and assessed the rice blast
resistances under the natural conditions that favoured disease development in
Jining, Shandong Province, China in 2017. Results showed that 92 (61.3%) and
58 (38.7%) rice varieties were resistant and susceptible to M. oryzae,
respectively. Among the 150 rice… More >
