Genetic diversity of the wheat yellow rust population in Pakistan and its relationship with host resistance
2011-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Yellow rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f.sp. tritici (PST), is an important disease that threatens wheat production in Pakistan. This study was designed to explore the virulence and simple sequence repeat (SSR) diversity of the Pakistani PST population and the ongoing selective pressures of widely grown wheat cultivars. Analyses of 49 isolates sampled from the North-West Frontier Province of Pakistan led to t...
