Wheat's war against stripe rust: Integrating host immunity, genomics and breeding for durable resistance. [PDF]
Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), a foundation of global food security, faces persistent threats from stripe rust caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst). The pathogen thrives in cool and humid environments and regularly causes epidemics that lead to severe yield losses.

Genetic dissection of leaf rust resistance in a diversity panel of tetraploid wheat (Triticum turgidum) [PDF]
Background Leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina Eriks (Pt) is a major threat to wheat cultivation worldwide. The rapid evolution of this pathogen has led to the emergence of new virulent strains that can overcome the resistance of commonly cultivated ...

The NPGS Sudan sorghum germplasm collection reveals a novel cluster of R genes associated with rust resistant. [PDF]
Abstract Leaf rust, caused by the obligate fungal pathogen Puccinia purpurea, poses a serious threat to sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] production leading to significant yield losses and undermining its values as renewable fuel crop. In this study, the United States Department of Agriculture—Agriculture Research Service, National Plant Germplasm ...

Genomic exploration of durable wheat rust resistance by integrating data from multiple worldwide populations. [PDF]
Abstract Global wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production faces significant challenges due to the destructive nature of leaf (Puccinia triticina; leaf rust [Lr]), stem (Puccinia graminis; stem rust [Sr]), and stripe (Puccinia striiformis; stripe rust [Yr]) rust diseases.

A Transmembrane Protein WAI-B2 Confers Multiple Disease Resistance in Wheat by Activating Autoimmunity. [PDF]
Wheat production is under threat from multiple diseases. This study clones the wheat autoimmunity gene WAI‐B2 from an EMS‐induced mutant that encodes a distinct transmembrane protein conferring resistance to wheat rusts and powdery mildew ‐ two major diseases affecting wheat crops.
