Because of high strain diversity, the resistance of most rice cultivars is relatively short. Therefore, identification and utilization of broad-spectrum resistance genes in rice breeding has been considered as the most effective and economical strategy to control this disease. By far, about forty blast resistance genes have been identified, but only eight of them confer
