Use of genomic selection in breeding rice (Oryza sativa L.) for resistance to rice blast (Magnaporthe oryzae)

Rice blast (RB), caused by the fungal pathogen Magnaporthe oryzae , is a major disease in rice ( Oryzae sativa L.) with resistance controlled by major and minor genes. Genomic selection (GS) is a breeding technology applicable for selecting traits controlled by many genes. Our objective was to asses...
