| Abstract | Globally, blast incited by Magnaporthe oryzae and sheath blight (ShB) by Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn forms two major fungal diseases that cause significant yield loss in rice. Pusa 6B, the Basmati quality maintainer line of the popular superfine grain aromatic rice hybrid Pusa RH10, is highly susceptible to both the diseases. The rice cultivar Tetep was used as the donor for transferring a major blast resistant gene, Pi54 and three ShB resistant quantitative trait loci (QTLs) namely, qSBR11-1, qSBR11-2 and qSBR7-1 into Pusa 6B using a marker assisted backcross breeding scheme with restricted number of backcrosses. Plants heterozygous for the alleles of interest and phenotypic similarity to the recurrent parent were used for generating BC1F2 population by selfing selected BC1F1 plants. Selected BC1F2 plants homozygous for Pi54 were selfed to generate BC1F3 families that were subjected to a step-wise reductive screening for the three ShB resistant QTLs. Final selections were advanced to BC1F5 generation through selfing while subjecting to stringent phenotypic selection. The advanced selections carrying blast and ShB resistant genes (Pi54, qSBR11-1, qSBR11-2, qSBR7-1) in the background of Pusa 6B were resistant to highly virulent strains of rice blast as well as ShB isolates without compromising the grain and cooking quality of Pusa 6B. Marker assisted transfer of blast and ShB resistance into Pusa 6B will aid in developing CMS lines with inbuilt resistance to these diseases. When combined with restorer lines possessing resistant genes/QTLs for these diseases, the improved Pusa6A lines will aid in development of improved Pusa RH10 and other novel aromatic hybrids with resistance to blast and ShB diseases. The present study demonstrates successful use of a restricted backcrossing strategy for introgression of multiple loci conferring resistance to two important fungal diseases in rice. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
