Abstract
Swarna-Sub1, a ruling submergence tolerant variety of rice, showed a significant decrease in the yield in major blast disease prone areas, which is caused by fungus Magnaporthe oryzae (Pyricularia oryzae). To overcome this problem, three major blast resistance genes viz., Pi1, Pi2, and Pi54 were pyramided through marker-assisted backcross breeding using donors, Swarna-LT (having Pi1 + Pi54) and Swarna-A51 (having Pi2). Foreground selection was...
