Dawn introduces blast resistant rice Dawn
A new blast resistant rice variety named Dawn has been released at Texas A&M University near Beaumont. Developed jointly by the Corps Research Division and ARS with Texas A&M, Dawn matures in 117 to 123 days and resists North American blast. It also shows moderate brown leaf spot resistance but is susceptible to straighthead disease. In four years of Texas testing it yielded 4,617 pounds per acre, slightly above Belle Patna, with 250 hundredweights of foundation seed available for 1966 seedings.
