Abstract: Rice blast manifests with different symptoms according to the affected plant organ, i.e., leaf and panicle blast, the latter being the primary determinant of yield losses in Italy. Forecasting models have been developed to drive fungicides application and perform scenario analyses to plan legislative measures on plant protection. An assessment of the blast pathogen pressure evolution in the Italian rice area under climate change realizations has not been done yet.
