Genetic Mapping of the Wheat Leaf Rust Resistance Gene Lr60 (LrW2)
2008-05-01
Abstract excerpt
Leaf rust (caused by Puccinia triticina Eriks.) is an important disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in North America. This study was conducted to assess the utility of the uncharacterized resistance gene Lr60 (formerly LrW2) for the development of resistant cultivars by demonstrating its novelty, genetic location, and the breadth of resistance that it confers. Haploids of a single gene line carrying Lr60 (RL61...
