Genetic basis of crown rust resistance in perennial ryegrass, breeding strategies, and genetic variation among pathogen populations: a review.
1999-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Crown rust caused by the fungus Puccinia coronata f. sp. lolii is probably the most serious disease of perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.). Breeding for resistance to crown rust is a major component of most perennial ryegrass improvement programs. This paper reviews the genetic basis of resistance to crown rust in perennial ryegrass, existing breeding strategies and their progress, and genetic variation in path...
