With just two sprays, the fungicide was reported to considerably improve grain yield and also gain effective control of the
rice disease. The investigation was performed versus a comparative fungicide.

Colleen Hefferan of the CSREES said the project would provide genomics-based tools that can be used by conventional plant breeders and others to develop better rice varieties, specifically by increasing rice milling yield and resistance to sheath blight, a major
rice disease.
Likewise realizing the importance of
rice disease especially the rice blast and bacterial leaf blight, several efforts have been made for increasing the resistance against these diseases.
Rice blast caused by Magnophorthe oryzae is among serious
rice disease, which induced significantly economic loss each year.
