Panicle blast severity decresed with increasing rates of potassium in the absence of nitrogen (N0). The relationship between panicle blast and K rats was quadratic at 30 kg ha-1 of nitrogen. Significant response to K fertilization was not obtained at 60 kg ha-1 of nitrogen in relation to panicle blast severity. aAdubacao aArroz aBrusone aDoenca de planta1 aBARBOSA FILHO, M.P.1 aFILIPPI, M.C.1 aZIMMERMANN, F.J.P. tPesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira, Brasiliagv.34, n.9, p.1729-1732, set. 1999.
