Improving the bacterial blight resistance of mestiso hybrid rice through gene pyramiding

The success of hybrid rice in increasing grain yield is hampered by its susceptibility to bacterial blight, which causes significant reduction in grain yield. This study aimed to determine the presence of introgressed resistance genes in improved maintainer and restorer parent lines; assess the gene...
