Wheat stripe rust is a destructive disease in the cool and humid wheat-growing areas of the world. Finding diverse sources of stripe rust resistance is critical for increasing genetic diversity of resistance for wheat breeding programs. Stripe rust resistance was identified in the alien species Psathyrostachys huashanica, and a wheat-P. huashanica amphiploid line (PHW-SA) with stripe rust resis...

karim as a new line (hamam-4: t.aest/sprw's'//ca8055/3/bacanora86 icw92-0477-1ap-1ap-4ap-1ap-0ap) was evaluated at gachsaran agricultural research station in 2004-2005. it was selected for its high grain yield (3975 kg ha-1) and included in advance yield trial in gachsaran, khoramabad, gonbad, moghan and ilam field stations in next growing season. average yield of this line and check ...

RL6137, a ‘Thatcher’ backcross line of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) has resistance to Puccinia triticina (causal agent of wheat leaf rust) derived from T. monococcum. To determine the chromosome location of this resistance, RL6137 was crossed with Thatcher and F2 individual seedlings were tested for segregation of leaf rust resistance and segregation of polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) ...

BACKGROUND While orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.) is a well-known perennial forage species, rust diseases cause serious reductions in the yield and quality of orchardgrass; however, genetic mechanisms of rust resistance are not well understood in orchardgrass. RESULTS In this study, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was performed using specific-locus amplified fragment sequencing (SL...

Mapping rust, anthracnose and angular leaf spot resistance genes in common bean using RAPD markers Molecular markers were used to study the organization of rust, anthracnose and angular leaf spot resistance genes in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) Ouro Negro cultivar. A segregant population of 154 recombinant inbred lines (RIL ́s) from the crossing between Ouro Negro and Rudá cultivars was inoc...

The rust fungi (order: Pucciniales) are a group of widely distributed fungal plant pathogens, which can infect representatives of all vascular plant groups. Rust diseases significantly impact several crop species and considerable research focuses on understanding the basis of host specificity and nonhost resistance. Like many pathogens, rust fungi vary considerably in the number of hosts they c...

Rust, incited by Uromyces appendiculatus^ is a major disease in common bean {Phaseolus vulgaris L,). Plant growth habit is also an important trait. Indeterminate growth habit was first reported to be controlled by a single dominant gene (Fin) (Lamprecht, 1935). Molecular markers such as isozymes, RFLP, and RAPD, have been used to tag genes for many traits, particularly disease resistance in sev...

Stable resistance to infection with Wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV) can be evolved de novo in selfing bread wheat lines subjected to cycles of WSMV inoculation and selection of best-performing plants or tillers. To learn whether this phenomenon might be applied to evolve resistance de novo to pathogens unrelated to WSMV, we examined the responses to leaf rust of succeeding generations of the r...

The fungus Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) is an important threat to wheat production because it can cause stripe rust. present study aimed to identify new rust resistance genes and provide a theoretical practical basis for breeding varieties with broad spectrum, stable, durable resistance. Wheat leaves inoculated Chinese yellow 34 were collected at different time points tran...

Rust is a major pathogen of the peanut crop. Development and adoption of rust-resistant cultivars is the most cost efficient and effective way to control the spread of the disease and reduce yield losses. Some cultivated peanut germplasm accessions have a degree of resistance, but the secondary gene pool is a source of much stronger resistance alleles. Wild species, however, have undesirable ag...
