For the management of this disease, the use of resistant cultivars remains the most economical, and most protective method for the environment. This study focuses on the evaluation of the resistance of 49 lines of rice resulting from crosses between popular cultivars of different countries of Sub-Sahara against blast. The experimental design used is a 7 x 7 Alpha lattice with 3 repetitions. The study was conducted in two rainfed sites (Farako-Bâ and Karfiguela) and two irrigated sites (Bagré and Tengrela) in Burkina Faso. The results showed that the rice genotypes developed the disease differently depending on their developmental stages and rice growing systems. In rainfed rice cultivation, 32 genotypes were resistant to leaf blast and 3 (AR-67, IR 130412 and CSR 36) were resistant to leaf and panicle blast. In irrigated conditions, 44 genotypes were resistant to leaf blast and 6 (TZLR-74, IR 133136-B, NERICA 4, NERICA 10, NERICA 11 and CSR 36) were resistant to leaf and panicle blast. The genotype (CSR 36) was disease resistant in both ecological conditions. The results of this study will make it possible to choose the best rice cultivars, tolerant or resistant to blast, and to identify the effective resistance genes in their genomes.

It aims at contributing to a better knowledge of the extent of the culture and the agricultural management modes of the cultivated species of Amaranthus spp. Ninety-nine (99) accessions were collected. The ethnobotanical survey showed that the cultivation of amaranth is clearly increasing (67.57%). Agro-morphological and organoleptic characteristics are used by farmers for cultivars identification. Thus, three main morphotypes (dark-green, light-green and red) with several variants were identified. Among these morphotypes, the morphotype dark green was cited by respondents in the ten provinces surveyed. In this study, a greater number of morphotypes were recorded in three provinces (Houet, Oubbritenga and Yatenga). Three (3) areas of use and fifteen (15) specific uses of the different organs of amaranth were reported by the 270 respondents. For 99.6% of the respondents, it is mainly used for human consumption (vegetable sauce, baag-benda, gnougou and couscous). Amaranth’s leaves are sold at on-farm level or in markets and yaar. The price of these leaves packaged in bags of 50 kg bags, varies from 1,500 to 2,500 FCFA.
