Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Leaf rust caused by Puccinia triticina Erikss. is a widely distributed wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) disease. Using wild relatives, such as Triticum spelta L., as a source of desirable traits represents a good strategy for developing wheat varieties, as T. spelta L. has shown tolerance to various types of biotic and abiotic stresses. This study aimed to determine the genetic basis of resistance to leaf...
