Inoculation of M. oryzae to rice panicles and disease phenotyping. (A) Suspension of M. oryzae spores, ready to infect the host. (B) Infection was given to the neck of rice panicle using 5 mL syringe. (C) Representative image of rice panicles showing the impact of pathogen on blast resistant (Tetep) and susceptible (HP2216) cultivars at different time intervals at 48 hpi, 72 hpi and 96 hpi (hpi= hour post infection) along with mock inoculated.
