Rice Blast: Interaction with Rice and Control Proceedings of the 3rd International Rice Blast Conference

For the researchers of rice blast disease and plant blast resistances, IRBC is an important chance to exchange information and discussion on rice blast, which has been a rather minor topic on international plant pathological meetings. Especially for those in Asia, where the blast is one the most imp...
