Screening of bioinoculant for bacterial leaf blight of Rice

In Pakistan, rice (Oryza sativa L.) occupies second position after wheat and is cultivated over an area of 2.6 million hectares, with total production of 5.55 million tonnes. The export of high quality ???Basmati rice??? earns 1.2 billion US$ annually. In order to become more competitive in international market, rice productivity needs to be enhanced. Low productivity of rice may be attributed to various constrains, but bacterial leaf blight (BLB) caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae is the most destructive and it has the potential to induce severe yield losses. Since the last few years, the disease is significantly reducing both quality and quantity of the produce.
