Two blast resistance genes, Pigm and Pid3, showed significantly enhanced resistance for the whole rice growth period, and six blast resistance genes Pi37, Pi5, Pit, Pi36, Pi54 or Pikm showed significantly enhanced resistance for some of the four backgrounds. Double-gene lines with Pi37/Pid3, Pi5/Pi54, Pi54/Pid3 and Pigm/Pi37 exhibited significantly enhanced resistance and observable additive effects. These lines could be used in rice hybrid and production.
