The scientific journey to eradicate smuts on the prairies
We provide a detailed exploration of the historical context on how we manage what was once among the most destructive and hard to manage diseases affecting wheat in North America, namely, common bunt (covered smut). Abstract The cultivation of wheat in North America represents a relatively recent endeavour, spanning a mere 150 years.

The susceptibility of spring soft wheat to smut of Tatarstan origin
The assessment of spring soft wheat varieties artificially infected with smut pathogen showed that more than a half of cultivars recommended to cultivation in the Republic of Tatarstan are extremely susceptible to the disease. The varieties ‘Simbirtsit’,
