Durable Resistance to Rice Blast Disease

  • Chapter
Durability of Disease Resistance

Part of the book series: Current Plant Science and Biotechnology in Agriculture ((PSBA,volume 18))

Summary

Observations of low-level infection by virulent populations of Magnaporthe grisea on traditional upland rice cultivars, reveal the existence of durable resistance. Its analysis demonstrates that it is a partial resistance. Resistant cultivars show an adult plant resistance; they limit the number and the size of lesions, that have the lowest capacity of sporulation. This partial resistance is of a polygenic nature. Segregating lines are usually screened for the total effect of the partial resistance components. One of the main problems in screening for durable resistance is the interaction between segregating lines having different race-specific major resistance genes in addition to different levels of partial resistance, and a blast population heterogeneous in virulence. Specific methods of breeding for partial polygenic resistance are proposed for pedigree selection and recurrent selection methods.
