| Abstract | ||||
| Rice (Oryza sativa), a monocot graminae plant, is one of the world's most significant food crops. Rather, it is the primary source of food for half of the world's population, particularly in Asia's southeastern areas. Rice is one of Egypt's most significant major grain crops, ranking second after wheat in terms of importance as a source of food for Egyptians. It is also one of the most important summer crops. This is owing to rice's nutritional value, as well as the fact that it is one of the most profitable crops for farmers. Rice is affected by many pathogens, the most important of which are brown spot disease caused by the fungus Bipolaris oryzae and leaf blight caused by the bacteria Xanthomonas oryzae. | ||||
