Mapping of a resistance gene to loose smut (Ustilago tritici) from the Canadian wheat breeding line BW278
2015-09-01
Abstract excerpt
Loose smut is a common disease of wheat caused by the fungus Ustilago tritici (Pers.) Rostr. Production of resistant cultivars is an effective strategy for managing this disease. Relatively few loose smut resistance genes have been identified in bread and durum wheat. The genetic basis of resistance to U. tritici in the Canadian wheat breeding line BW278 was studied in a recombinant inbred line (RIL) population of...
