Biological Control of Common Bunt (Tilletia tritici)

The Journal of Crop Improvement: Innovations in Practiceory and Research, 2001
Summary Common bunt (Tilletia tritici syn. T. caries) is a significant seed-borne plant disease in organic agriculture. General measures in ecological crop protection like crop rotation and manuring have in practice failed to control this disease, and direct seed treatment may be necessary to ensure yield and food quality.

Inheritance of resistance to common bunt in spelt and common wheat

Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 2003
Common bunt causes yield loss and reduces grain quality in both common and durum wheats in western Canada. Since the most cost-effective method of control is the use of host resistance, this study was conducted to provide information on the genetic control of bunt resistance in three potentially new sources: common wheat cultivar Triple Dirk and spelt

DNA markers for resistance to common bunt in ‘McKenzie’ wheat

Canadian Journal of Plant Pathology, 2013
Abstract Common bunt, caused by Tilletia tritici (Bjerk.) G. Wint. in Rabenh. and T. laevis Kϋhn in Rabenh., is an economically important disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) worldwide. The hexaploid wheat cultivar ‘McKenzie’ possesses effective resistance against known races of common bunt in western Canada.

[Genealogic analysis of the resistance of winter wheat to common bunt].

Genetika, 2004
Comparative genealogical analysis of North American (the United States and Canada) and Eastern European (Russia and Ukraine) winter wheat cultivars resistant and susceptible to common bunt has been performed. Analysis of variance applied to North American wheats has demonstrated that resistant and susceptible cultivars significantly differ from each ...

The Effect of the Common Bunt on the Growth of Wheat Seedlings and Calluses

Russian Journal of Plant Physiology, 2002
The growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum L., cv. Zhnitsa) seedlings and calluses infected with spores of common bunt causal agent Tilletia caries (DC) Tul. was studied. Inoculation with the pathogenic fungus enhanced both in vivo and in vitro growth due to cell division activation and cell expansion.

New Races of Common Bunt Useful to Determine Resistance of Wheat to Dwarf Bunt¹

Crop Science, 1978
Two new races of the common bunt fungus, Tilletia caries (DC.) Tul., were obtained from inoculations with teliospore mixtures. One race, T‐29, was virulent on wheat, Triticum aestivum L., cultivars carrying combinations of bunt resistance genes Bt1,2,7,9 and 10. The other race, T‐30, was virulent on cultivars carrying combinations of Bt 1,2,4,6,7,9 and

Genetic mapping of common bunt resistance and plant height QTL in wheat

Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2015
Breeding for field resistance to common bunt in wheat will need to account for multiple genes and epistatic and QTL by environment interactions. Loci associated with quantitative resistance to common bunt are co-localized with other beneficial traits including plant height and rust resistance.Common bunt, also known as stinking smut, is caused by seed ...

A DNA marker for the Bt-10 common bunt resistance gene in wheat

Genome, 1996
The Bt-10 bunt gene confers resistance to most races of the common bunt fungi, Tilletia tritici and T. laevis. The RAPD technique, employing a total of 965 decamer primers, was used to identify polymorphic markers between resistant (BW553) and susceptible ('Neepawa') near-isogenic lines.

Investigations on chemical control of common bunt of wheat. 1

Australian Journal of Experimental Agriculture and Animal Husbandry, 1967
Field trials were conducted at five sites in Victoria and one in South Australia in 1963-64 and 1965-66 to test a number of chemicals alone and in combination for the control of common bunt of wheat (Tilletia caries (DC.) Tul. and T. foetida (Wallr.) Liro) using mixed populations of the species as inoculum.
