摘要
Bacterial leaf streak （BLS） is one of the important limiting factors to rice production in southern China and other tropical and sub-tropical areas in Asia. Resistance to BLS was found to be a quantitative trait and no major resistant gene was located in rice until date. In the present study, a new major quantitative trait locus （QTL） conferring resistance to BLS was identified from a highly resistant variety Dular by the employment of Dular/Balilla （DB） and Dular/IR24 （DI） segregation populations and was designated qBLSR-11-1. This QTL was located between the simple sequence repeat （SSR） markers RM120 and RM441 on chromosome 11 and could account for 18.1-21.7% and 36.3% of the variance in DB and DI populations, respectively. The genetic pattern of rice resistance to BLS was discussed.
