Abstract excerpt
Crown rust, caused by Puccinia coronata f. sp. avenae (Pca), remains a persistent threat to oat production in Australia. To monitor recent shifts in virulence and population structure, 30 Pca isolates collected during the 2024 growing season across major Australian oat-producing regions were analyzed. Virulence analysis of 30 isolates using 52 oat differential lines identified 25 unique races that were not...
