4.1 Screening of rice germplasm for resistance
against rice blast disease
Observations on leaf blast were taken at 15 days
interval starting from first disease appearance up to
physiological maturity of the crop. The observations
were recorded as per the standard evaluation system
of rice on 0-9 scale (IRRI, 1996) depending up on the
leaf area covered by the disease.
