Comprehensive Evaluation of Bacterial Blight Resistance and Gene Distribution in Common Wild Rice (Oryza rufipogon) from Hainan Province, China
Friday, 12-06-2026 | 08:53
Bacterial blight (BB), caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. Oryzae (Xoo), is one of the most devastating diseases in rice worldwide. Common wild rice (Oryza rufipogon Griff.) inhabiting the high-temperature and high-humidity environments of Hainan Island has evolved strong disease resistance through natural selection, representing a valuable genetic reservoir for resistance breeding. However, large-scale characterization of resistance phenotypes, resistance genes, and their combinations remains limited.
