Effects of ion beam irradiation on agronomic traits and blast resistance in rice, and molecular screening of blast resistance genes
Rice, Oryzasativa, is one of the most important food crops all over the world. Application of ion beam is one of the effective tools to induce mutations into the rice crops. Rice blast caused by, Pyricularia oryzae (Cooke) Sacc.,Teleomorph, Magnaporthe Oryzae isone of the most devastating diseases...

Rice, Oryzasativa, is one of the most important food crops all over the world. Application of ion beam is one of the effective tools to induce mutations into the rice
crops. Rice blast caused by, Pyricularia oryzae (Cooke) Sacc.,Teleomorph, Magnaporthe Oryzae isone of the most devastating diseases causing huge losses annuallyworldwide.Cultivating resistant cultivars is the most reliable method to prevent occurring blast disease in rice producing areas. Ion beam irradiation also can be utilized to improve desired agronomic traits that are related to rice yield. Plants performing desired characteristics should be cultivated for at least seven generations in order to obtain pure lines. M2 population of seeds MR219 (irradiated by Agency Nuclear Malaysia at three different doses of 40Gy, 60Gy, and 80 Gy) were used in this studyfor the effect of ionizing radiation.

Ten replications, including 20 samples in each replication were cultivated for the screening the variation of agronomic traits.
