Micro- Weather Factors during Rice Heading Period Influencing the Development of Rice Bacterial Grain Rot

To make the forecasting model of rice bacterial grain rot (RGBR) using the statistical procedures with SAS(Statistical Analysis System) based on micro-weather factors during heading period of rice, 21 rice varieties having the different heading time (40％ panicles headed) were planted at 30 May and 15 June in Naju. Heading time and diseased panicles were investigated from July to August in 1998. RGBR mainly occurred on varieties headed from 29 July to 19 August, but not on varieties headed after 22 August. RGBR was highly correlated with diurnal temperature during 7 days (r
