Powdery mildew (PM) of wheat caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici is among the most
important wheat diseases, causing significant yield and quality losses in many countries …

Relativement peu de choses sont connues au sujet du contrôle génétique des caractères
agronomiques chez le blé (Triticum aestivum L.) contrairement au cas des caractères …

Gene pyramiding is a breeding strategy whereby host resistance genes are combined
together with the objective of prolonging their usefulness in crops such as wheat (Triticum …

The partial rust resistance genes Lr34 and Sr2 have been used extensively in wheat
(Triticum aestivum L.) improvement, as they confer exceptional durability. Interestingly, the …

Tests with adult plants in the greenhouse confirmed virulence in Australasian populations of
Puccinia recondita f. sp. tritici for the adult plant resistance genes Lr12, Lr13, and Lr22b …

Leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina, is considered one of the most important diseases of
wheat. In South Africa the genes Lr29, Lr34, Lr35 and Lr37 confer effective resistance to leaf …

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars grown in the Great Plains usually bear awned spikes
for their putative value to grain yield and quality. Awnletted cultivars are generally limited to …

Abstract The locus Lr34/Yr18 plays an important role in conferring resistance to a number of
fungal diseases and is thus an important component of global wheat breeding efforts. We …

Some of the many disease‐resistance genes transferred into common wheat (Triticum
aestivum L.) by interspecific hybridization have been underutilized in agriculture because of …

The relation between high-molecular-weight (HMW) glutenin subunits and bread-making
quality could enable selection for improved bread-making quality in early stages of breeding …
