Abstract excerpt
The Swiss winter bread wheat cv. 'Forno' has a highly effective, durable and quantitative leaf rust ( Puccinia triticina Eriks.) resistance which is associated with leaf tip necrosis (LTN). We studied 240 single seed descent lines of an 'ArinaxForno' F(5:7 )population to identify and map quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for leaf rust resistance and LTN. Percentage of infected leaf area (%) and the response to...
