Adult plant resistance to Puccinia triticina in a geographically diverse collection of Aegilops tauschii
2017-06-01
Abstract excerpt
Despite extensive genetics and breeding research, effective control of leaf rust caused by Puccinia triticina Eriks., an important foliar disease of wheat, has not been achieved. This is mainly due to the widespread use of race-specific seedling resistance genes, which are rapidly overcome by new virulent races. There is increased emphasis now on the use of race-nonspecific adult plant resistance (APR) genes for d...
