Analyses of the large-scale population structure of pathogens enable the identification of migrationpatterns, diversity reservoirs or longevity of populations, the understanding of current evolutionarytrajectories and the anticipation of future ones. This is particularly important for long-distancemigrating fungal pathogens such as Puccinia striiformis f.sp. tritici (PST), which is ...

A number of different fungal hyperparasites have been observed to grow in pustules of rust fungi. Examples of these are Verticillium (HASSEBRAUK 1936, KOTTHoFF 1937, GAMS 1971), Darluca fi/um (KRANz 1973), Monocillium nordinii (TSUNEDA and HIRATSUKA 1980), Alternaria and Cladosporium species (OMAR and HEATHER 1979). Verticillium lecanii may be the most interesting fungus for biological control ...

The development of resistant cultivars is a preferred way to manage the wheat rust pathogens. Successful breeding relies on continuous discovery, characterization and deployment genetically diverse resistance sources. This investigation covers identification stripe (caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici) carried pre-Green Revolution genotype, Aus27492, from France its transfer modern ba...
