An optimized microchamber method for rapid screening of rice for sheath blight resistance in the Philippines
Breeding resistance to sheath blight (caused by Rhizoctonia solani Kuhn) in rice is constrained by the lack of highly resistant donors and a rapid, simple but effective screening method. The use of microchambers such as plastic soda bottles provides better control of humidity and temperature necessa...
