The use of host resistance (R) genes is considered the most cost‐effective option to control the rice blast disease. The two allelic R genes Pi2 and Pi9 confer very broad‐spectrum resistance against blast isolates collected worldwide. However, the two genes have not yet been widely deployed in rice breeding programmes. Availability of specific markers for them would facilitate incorporating the two...
High chalkiness is a major problem in many rice‐producing areas of the world, especially in hybrid rice (Oryza sativa L.) in China. We previously showed a major quantitative trait locus for the percentage of grains with white chalkiness (QTLqPGWC‐8) in the interval G1149‐R727 on chromosome 8 using a chromosome segment substitution line (CSSL). Here, we selected the line‐CSSL50 harboring the QTLqPGWC‐8...
