Improving panicle blast resistance and fragrance in a high-quality japonica rice variety through breeding by Junhua Ye, Junhua Ye, Kai Wang, Yi Wang, Zhipeng Zhao, Ying Yan, Hang Yang, Lixia Zhang, Lixia Zhang, Zejun Hu, Zejun Hu, Zhenying Shi, Dapeng Sun, Jianjiang Bai, Liming Cao, Liming Cao, Shujun Wu, Shujun Wu

“…Pigm and Pi-ta are two dominant genes known for their stable broad-spectrum resistance against rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, while badh2 is the crucial gene that regulates rice aroma.MethodsIn this study, we utilized a molecular marker-assisted selection backcrossing strategy to introduce Pigm, Pi-ta, and badh2 into introgressed lines employing re-sequencing for precise genetic background selection.ResultsFinally, we selected three introgressed lines, including two that carry Pigm with the highest background recovery rates, showing eating and cooking qualities similar to those of HR1212, and one line that pyramids Pigm, Pi-ta, and badh2, which features a strong aroma. …”
