Effects of planting density and the composition of wheat cultivar mixtures on stripe rust: an analysis taking into account limits to the replication of controls [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The effect of plant density on disease is not well understood in populations of a single host plant genotype and has been studied even less in mixtures of host genotypes.

The Vulnerability of New Zealand Forage Plants to Incursions by New Pests, Pathogens and Weeds, and the Case for Greater Protection

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
We outline the diversity of pests, weeds and plant pathogens absent from New Zealand that threaten forage production, examine their potential import pathways, and outline the challenges of managing them should they arrive. The number and diversity of threats and pathways indicates ongoing incursions are inevitable.

Unlocking the genetic control of early seedling resistance to wheat powdery mildew through microphenomics

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 2, Page 1668-1679, February 2026.
Microphenomics is a new technique for detecting the very early resistance of powdery mildew in wheat seedlings, after 24, 48, and 72 h from infection. A number of 29, 42, and 34 genes models were identified to harbor significant SNP markers associated with the early resistance to WPM.

Infection of Brachypodium distachyon with Selected Grass Rust Pathogens

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2013
The model temperate grass Brachypodium distachyon is considered a nonhost for wheat rust diseases caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici, P. triticina, and P. striiformis. Up to 140 Brachypodium accessions were infected with these three rust species,

An ancestral NB-LRR with duplicated 3'UTRs confers stripe rust resistance in wheat and barley. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Wheat stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is a global threat to wheat production. Aegilops tauschii, one of the wheat progenitors, carries the YrAS2388 locus for resistance to Pst on chromosome 4DS.

Rice blast pathogen effector AvrPib compromises disease resistance by targeting Raf‐like protein kinase OsMAPKKK72 to inhibit MAPK signaling

open access: yesJournal of Integrative Plant Biology, Volume 68, Issue 2, Page 486-501, February 2026.
The rice Raf‐like protein kinase OsMAPKKK72 acts as a scaffold to modulate MAPK signaling. To invade rice plants, the blast fungus delivers the effector AvrPib to target OsMAPKKK72, suppressing MAPK activation and rice blast resistance. ABSTRACT Phytopathogens, such as the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, suppress plant immunity for reproduction ...

Genetic analysis of rust resistance genes in global wheat cultivars: an overview

open access: yesBiotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2017
Rust is the most devastating fungal disease in wheat. Three rust diseases, namely, leaf or brown rust caused by Puccinia triticina Eriks, stem or black rust caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp.

Molecular Characterization of Novel Totivirus-Like Double-Stranded RNAs from Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, the Causal Agent of Wheat Stripe Rust

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Characterization of newly isolated mycoviruses may contribute to understanding of the evolution and diversity of viruses. Here, a deep sequencing approach was used to analyze the double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) mycoviruses isolated from field-collected P ...

Genetic Gains in Durum Wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum) Across the Globe: Yield, Quality and Adapting for Variable Weather Patterns

open access: yesPlant Breeding, Volume 145, Issue 1, Page 142-165, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum [Desf.] Husnot) is cultivated globally and used to produce pasta, couscous, bulgur and other semolina products. With the growing world population and increasing food demand, it is pertinent to understand past trends in global food production to shape future endeavours.

A Transmembrane Protein WAI‐B2 Confers Multiple Disease Resistance in Wheat by Activating Autoimmunity

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 3, 14 January 2026.
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.
