The heterosis of rice resistant varieties to bacterial blight have been observed by means of double cross method. The results indicated that the resistance at the end of tillering period of F1 showed no heterosis. The heterosis was significant at heading period, For F2,the heterosis had both positive and negative types, For the combination of Fl and F2 complete dominance or partial dominance was observed. Most of them were clearly, some of them were the later. According to index of heterosis, the heterosis of resistance of crosses was also predicted. It was d ≥ 1 for resistant parents, but d<1 for susceptible parents. This heterosis could be predicted by the resistance of their parents.
