Figures have been revised with addition of arrows and text to represent the data. Since a large number of ILs were screened, susceptible check (SC) was used with a set of ILs and hence SC couldn’t be shown in all figures. However, SC ‘HR12’ for blast disease was shown in all blast screening figures 3 to 5. Similarly, in Fig 5, ‘TN1’ and ‘Improved Samba Mahsuri’ as susceptible and resistant checks respectively for BB in comparison with IL-19031 were shown. Authors once again thank the reviewer for pointing out the mistake in legends. Now, we have rephrased the legends clearly describing all the terms.
The last paragraph of results is about background selection.
