Growing resistant wheat varieties is a key method of controlling two important wheat diseases, leaf rust and stripe rust. We analyzed quantitative trait loci (QTL) to investigate adult plant resistance (APR) to these rusts, using 141 F5 RILs derived from the cross ‘Avocet-YrA/Francolin#1’. Phenotyping of leaf rust resistance was conducted during two seasons at Ciudad Obregon, Mexico, whereas stripe...
Host resistance is the most economical means to reduce yield losses caused by wheat leaf rust. Knowledge of the effective specific resistance genes is a prerequisite for analysis of the non-specific components of resistance, assumed to be more durable than specific resistance. Lr genes were inferred from seedling response phenotype of 275 wheat cultivars and 21 standard isolates of Puccinia triticina...
Leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina, is one of the most widespread diseases in common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) globally. With the objective of identifying and mapping new genes for resistance to leaf rust, F1, F2 plants and F3 lines from a cross between resistant cultivar Bimai 16 and susceptible cultivar Thatcher were inoculated with Chinese Puccinia triticina pathotypes FHTT and PHTS in...
Summary A set of 105 European wheat cultivars, comprising 68 cultivars with known seedling resistance genes and 37 cultivars that had not been tested previously, was tested for resistance to selected Australian pathotypes of P. triticina in seedling greenhouse tests and adult plant field tests. Only 4% of the cultivars were susceptible at all growth stages. Twelve cultivars lacked detectable seedling...
Multi-pathotype tests on 70 U.K. wheat cultivars permitted postulation of eight known seedling genes for resistance to Puccinia recondita f. sp.tritici either singly or in combinations. The most commonly detected gene was Lr13 (present in approximately 57% of cultivars), followed by Lr26 (22%), Lr37 (20%), Lr10 (17%), Lr17b (LrH) (10%), Lr1 (7%), Lr3a (6%) and Lr20(4%). This information permitted...
Pathogenicity data from surveys of Puccinia triticina (formerly P. recondita f. sp. tritici) conducted in western Europe in 1995 were analysed to compare the structure of regional populations of the pathogen. Many of the populations differed in phenotypic diversity and pathotypic composition, even though they occurred within a single epidemiological unit, suggesting that local factors may influence...
