Molecular markers eg restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP), single nucleotidepolymorphism (SNP) and simple sequence repeat (SSR) tightly linked to target gene have beenidentified in different chromosomes to impose the genetic selection iemarker assisted selection(MAS).

Qualitative resistance gene may occasionally be broken down due tonumerous races of blast fungus both physiological and geographical races available in Nepal.Quantitative gene resistance and gene pyramiding are the best alternative for creating durableresistancesystem.At least40genesconferringresistance toblast isolateswithmultiplealleleshavebeen described.

    INTRODUCTIONRice (Oryza sativa L.) is themostpreferred cropofNepalese farmersand they are growing about2000differentricelandracesand67improvedricecultivarsfrom60mto3050maltitude(UpadhyayandJoshi2003). In all rice growing areasblastdisease causedby (Magnaporthe grisea (Herbert)Borr. (anamorphPyriculariaoryzaCav.=P.griseaCav.)isthemostseriousfungaldiseasecausingheavyyieldlossesfrom10to 80% (Manandhar et al 1992). Blast occurs at different growth stages. The fungus produces spots orlesionson leaves,nodesanddifferentpartsofpaniclesandgrains.Theneckblastmakesmoresignificantyield and quality losses than leaf blast (Katsube et al 1970).While highly positive correlation betweenresistancetoleafandneckblasthasbeengenerallyobserved,inconsistencybetweenresistancetoleafandneckblastwasalsoevident(Zhuangetal2002).

    Blast disease is themost destructive diseaseworldwide.Growing resistant varieties hasbeen themosteffectiveandeconomicwaytocontrolthisdiseasebutresistanceisoftenlostinafewyearsaftercultivarsreleasedbecauseofthehighvariabilityofthericeblastfungus.Tobreedricevarietieswithmoredurableblast resistance, multiple resistance genes utilizing both qualitative and quantitative genes must beincorporated into individual varieties. This necessitates the exploration ofmore efficient selection andbreeding strategies than those currently exist. Recent advancements in DNA marker technology mayprovidenewsolutionsforselectingandmaintainingmoredurableresistancegenotypesinrice.Incontrastto the traditional selection based on phenotypic screening molecular markers are refractory toenvironmental variation. Upon identification of molecular markers closely linked to desirable trait/s,markerassistedselection(MAS)canbeperformedformultipleresistanceinearlysegregatinggenerationsandatearly stagesofplantdevelopment.Thispaper summarize theprogressandachievementmade inbreedingforblastresistancebasedonDNAmarkerswhichhelpinplanningblastresistancegenetagginginNepalesericegenotypesanddevelopingblastresistantinbredlineornearisogenicline(NIL).

Multiple alleles upto 5 are identified. Mackill and Bonman (1992)developed 22 near isogenic lines (NILs) each having a single complete R gene from CO39 to study thegeneticsofblast resistance.At least four independent loci,Pi1 toPi4were identifiedafter inheritancestudyusing theseNILs.
