520 _a"Rice is a major food crop for people around the world; it is a major staple food and a source of nutrition for over 3.5 billion people worldwide. Rice is susceptible to a number of bacterial diseases that decrease its yield and quality. This book covers the various bacterial diseases of rice and their management. It focuses on various sustainable management methods-biological control, conventional breeding methods, and molecular methods, as opposed to chemical control, which can be hazardous to the environment. The book provides a comprehensive view of rice bacterial diseases starting from the identification of bacterial diseases and their ecology to the management of bacterial disease, which includes conventional as well as new and emerging methods. The book examines the impact of rice bacterial diseases on global food security that can lead to a food crisis worldwide. It discusses potential methods for bacterial disease identification and covers the biology of rice bacterial blight pathogen, virulence determinants, and various host defense factors of bacterial blight pathogen-rice interactions and traditional and recent tools for bacterial blight disease management. Different resistance rice cultivars, their resistance loci, and quantitative trait loci mapping in the important rice cultivars are also discussed. The book presents biological studies of the major rice bacterial diseases (rice bacterial brown stripe disease, bacterial leaf streak disease, rice bacterial panicle blight disease, rice bacterial foot rot, sheath brown rot disease) and presents comparative analyses of conventional, breeding, and molecular management approaches, along with a selection of examples. Also included is a review of bioinformatics tools for rice disease management. The up-to-date knowledge presented in Bacterial Diseases of Rice and Their Management will serve as a useful reference book for students, academicians, and scientists in plant pathology as well as for molecular breeders and biotechnologists working in the area of crop science"--
