TL;DR

Among resistance genes, Lr9, Lr19, Lr23, Lr28, Lr29, and the Lr13 and Lr46 line (Pavon-F76) were consistently effective, while high temperature and relative humidity were key drivers of epidemics.

Morphological and Molecular Screening for Bacterial Leaf Blight Resistance in Land Races of Rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Bacterial leaf blight (BLB) of rice, caused by Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae, is a major constraint on rice production, and the use of resistant genotypes is an important approach to disease management. The present study screened 40 rice genotypes for BLB resistance using morphological evaluation and molecular markers...

Phytosanitary assessment of resistance of wheat varieties and lines bred at the Donskoy Agricultural Research Centre to major leaf diseases

The study was conducted in 2021-2023 in Krasnodar Region under artificial infection conditions to screen winter wheat varieties for resistance to brown, yellow, and stem rusts, as well as yellow leaf spot, to identify genotypes with group-specific disease resistance that could be used for immune selection. Plants were...

Agronomic Performance and Dual Resistance Evaluation to Powdery Mildew and Stripe Rust in 660 Wheat Germplasm Lines

Wheat powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, Bgt) and stripe rust (Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, Pst) are two foliar diseases that threaten global wheat production. The development of germplasms with resistance to both diseases and acceptable agronomic performance is a priority for improving wheat. A...

Unlocking the potential of spring wheat genetic resources: uncovering resistance sources against leaf rust and yellow rust

Integrating high-throughput phenotyping with multiple complementary GWAS models reduces method-dependent bias and enables reliable identification of novel loci and elite germplasm for durable yellow and leaf rust resistance in wheat. The causal agents of yellow and leaf rust in wheat, Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritic...
