The inheritance of resistance in rice to bacterial blight (Xanthomonas campestris pv. oryzae) was studied in the $F_2$ generation of the cross between resistant cultivar IR50 and susceptible cultivar Zhu-Lian-Ai. Resistance was found to be controlled by two dominant complementary genes in IR50. The resistance gene(s) was linked with gene(s) for earliness with the recombination value of $6.1\~25.6\%$ in this cross.
