SELECTION OF RICE DHS AND RILS FOR RESISTANCE TO LEAF BLAST DISEASE

S. NANDY, S. MITRA AND N. MANDAL

Abstract

The doubled haploid and recombinant inbred lines development from a cross between IRAT177 and Apura were evaluated for resistance of leaf blast disease under natural and artificial conditions. Most of the lines exhibited high resistance to leaf blast. The performance of the lines at different locations was consistent with their performance under artificial screening study. Therefore, artificial screening can be practiced in place of natural screening for this disease.
