Yellow Rust Epidemics Worldwide Were Caused by Pathogen Races from Divergent Genetic Lineages
We investigated whether the recent worldwide epidemics of wheat yellow rust were driven by races of few clonal lineage(s) or populations of divergent races. Race phenotyping of 887 genetically diverse Puccinia striiformis isolates sampled in 35 countries

Crop Diversification to Control Rust in Faba Bean Caused by Uromyces viciae-fabae
Uromyces viciae-fabae is a highly specific biotrophic fungus that causes faba bean rust, one of the major diseases affecting this crop. We have assessed the feasibility of using intercropping (faba bean mixed with either pea, wheat or barley) or mixtures

Accomplishments in wheat rust research in South Africa
Rust diseases, although seasonal, have been severe constraints in wheat production in South Africa for almost 300 years. Rust research gained momentum with the institution of annual surveys in the 1980s, followed by race identification, an understanding ...

Alternative Control of Phragmidium rubi-idaei Infecting Two Rubus Species
Organic berry plantations have been gaining popularity among farmers during recent years. Even so, farmers experience serious challenges in disease control management, which is a concern in organic farming. Phragmidium rubi-idaei (DC) P.
