Geographic distribution and genetic variation of the Xa7 locus.
(A) Comparison of the population structure of 3010 rice accessions and 493 rice varieties that contain the Xa7 locus. Indica, Japonica, AUS, ARO, and ADM are different subgroups of rice. Numbers refer to the number of varieties in each subgroup.
(B) Geographic distribution of the Xa7 locus among the 3010 cultivated rice accessions. The size of the red dots represents the number of varieties distributed in the indicated countries.
(C) Comparison of EBEs in the Xa7 locus based on the sequencing results of the 12 varieties (shown in Supplemental Figure 8). Type I (Xa7) belongs to the PXO86-resistant varieties, and Type II (xa7) belongs to the PXO86-susceptible varieties.
