Sheath blight, caused by Rhizoctonia solani anastomosis group 1 subgroup 1A (AG1-1A), is one of the most devastating rice diseases worldwide. Here, we report the draft genome sequence of R. solani AG1-1A strain 1802/KB isolated from a popular Malaysian rice variety. To the best of our knowledge, this is the second reported representative genome from AG1-1A.

Rhizoctonia solani AG1-IA, is the most economically important disease in Texas and other southern rice-producing states. The disease is widespread and occurs every year. The disease was first reported in Japan in 1910, and was soon well established in many Asian countries (Lee and Rush, 1983). The pathogen is capable of infecting rice, soybeans, grass weeds, and hundreds of other plant species ...

rhizoctonia disease of potato is one of the main causes of yield loss in this crop world- wide. in order to survey the importance of causal agent spread by seed tubers, 36 isolates of rhizoctonia solani were obtained from stored seed tubers and infected subterranean potato plant in the main potato production areas of hamedan and kurdistan provinces in the west of iran. the examination of anasto...

This study was carried out to determine the anastomosis groups and disease severity of Rhizoctonia solani, which causes root collar rot in chickpea production areas Konya. A total eleven isolates spp. were obtained isolations made from plants surveys. examined microscopically grouped as multinucleate, binucleate according number nuclei. Ten multinucleate identified R. while one isolate sp. In p...
