Neck Blast of Paddy

16/09/2019Posted on
  • Rice blast is one of the most destructive diseases of rice. Because neck and node blast affects the panicle directly, yield losses in affected plants are very high.
  • Node infection occurs in a banded pattern. 
  • Lesions on the node are blackish to grayish brown.
  • Infected nodes can cause the culm or the part of the plant that holds the panicle to break.
  • Lesions on the neck are grayish brown and can cause girdling, making the neck and the panicle fall over. 
  • If the infection of the neck occurs before the milky stage, no grain is formed, but if infection occurs later, poor quality grains are formed.
  • Neck and node blast can also cause whiteheads or white panicles, similar to stem borer infection.
