The history of the modern oat may be traced to its intergeneric contamination wheat and barley in southwest Asia, particularly Mesopotamia due use only forage crop rather than a staple food most countries it’s been neglected. There are just few economically cultivated species this self-pollinated crop, including A. sativa, nuda, byzantina. After rice, wheat, maize, sorghum, barley, production c...

In the framework of study on rust fungi of Fabaceae and based on the study of herbarium and newly collected specimens, six Uromyces species are recognized on Medicago spp. and Trifolium spp. from Iran. Among these species, U. fallens is recorded as new member for the Iranian rust flora. U. striatus is recorded as main causal agent of rust on lucerne (Medicago sativa) in Iran. Moreover, U. trifo...

The rusts of wheat are important fungal plant pathogens that can be disseminated thousands of kilometers across continents and oceans by wind. Rusts are obligate parasites that interact with resistance genes in wheat in a gene-for-gene manner. New races of rust develop by mutation and selection for virulence against rust resistance genes in wheat. In recent years, new races of wheat leaf rust, ...

Recent advances in the field of sequencing technologies and bioinformatics allow a more rapid access to genomes of non-model organisms at sinking costs. Accordingly, draft genomes of several economically important cereal rust fungi have been released in the last 3 years. Aside from the very recent flax rust and poplar rust draft assemblies there are no genomic data available for other dicot-inf...

During the growing season of 2015, leaf specimens with yellow rust spots were collected from Salix koreensis Andersson, known as Korean willow, in riverine areas in Cheonan, Korea. The fungus on S. koreensis was identified as the rust species, Melampsora yezoensis, based on the morphology of urediniospores observed by light and scanning electron microscopy, and the molecular properties of the i...

Studies on fungicides’ effect new varieties and lines of winter triticum-wheatgrass hybrids triticale were conducted in the conditions Central zone Russian Federation. The results showed that preparations Alto Super, CE Falcon, effectively cope with suppression brown leaf rust dosages recommended by manufacturers. They allow to reduce prevalence 15.2-35.6%, development degree disease - 9.9-18.0...
