Wheat stripe (or yellow) rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, imposes a major constraint on wheat production. While race-specific seedling resistance genes can be effective in controlling this disease, those conferring resistance at the adult stage typically protect the host from infection by a broad spectrum of the pathogen, and tend to be more durable. But the durable resistance such as that...
