Bakanae disease， caused by Fusarium fujikuroi， is a globally important fungal disease of rice. The pathogen produces gibberellins， cell wall-degrading enzymes， and effector proteins that interfere with host metabolic processes and suppress immune responses， ultimately leading to elongate seedling growth and reduce yield. This article systematically reviews the application of artificial inoculation methods and molecular marker-assisted genotyping techniques in the evaluation of rice resistance to bakanae disease. It compares existing screening results and evaluation criteria for resistant germplasm resources， laying an important foundation for in-depth exploration of key disease-resistant genes and the development of resistant rice varieties. Furthermore， in response to challenges such as the scarcity of resistant germplasm， this paper proposes that future efforts should integrate high-throughput screening with multi-environment field validation to establish a standardized， reproducible， and widely applicable resistance evaluation platform for bakanae disease across diverse genetic backgrounds. This will provide a solid basis for further mining of critical resistance genes and the assessment of resistant resources.
