Abstract
AbstractTwenty isolates of Xanthomonas campestris pv. oryzae (Ishiyama) Dye each from susceptible and resistant rice cultivars, were inoculated on the susceptible genotype IR‐8 and resistant M Sungsong to measure the impact of host selection pressure on virulence change. Isolates virulent on resistant genotype tended to be less adaptive on susceptible cultivars. While isolates from susceptible genotype showed 2.2 times more general virulence (GV) than specific virulence (SV), isolates of resistant host origin had only 1.3 times GV, indicating that the resistant host plant displays considerable increase in virulence. The SV value increased 1.64 times after one cropping with resistants indicated the potential of the pathogen to change to be slow.
