Mapping of the leaf rust resistance gene Lr38 on wheat chromosome arm 6DL using SSR markers
2008-08-01
Abstract excerpt
Leaf rust caused by the fungus Puccinia triticina is one of the most important diseases of wheat (Triticum aestivum) worldwide. The use of resistant wheat cultivars is considered the most economical and environment-friendly approach in controlling the disease. The Lr38 gene, introgressed from Agropyron intermedium, confers a stable seedling and adult plant resistance against multiple isolates tested in Europe. In...
