Overview

Investigation of sheath disease pathogens in rice reveals diverse Rhizoctonia species, indicating potential management strategies.

Key Points

  • R. solani and R. oryzae were isolated as major pathogens causing sheath diseases in rice.
  • Pathogenicity tests revealed that R. oryzae caused larger lesions compared to R. solani in infected rice.
  • Molecular techniques confirmed the identities of isolates, supporting the need for precise pathogen characterization.
  • This study marks the first report of R. oryzae occurring in Lao PDR, highlighting its significance for local agriculture.
