• 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.
