Genetic divergence analysis for bacterial leaf blight (BLB) disease resistance in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

The present study was undertaken to assess the genetic variability existed among 114 rice germplasm for BLB resistance. In field level screening, the genotypes PY5 and Kadaikannan showed immune against rice BLB. The rice germplasm were subjected to 𝐷2 analysis for nine quantitative traits viz., pl...
