Crop genotypic richness enhances biomass production and phosphorus acquisition in maize‐mycorrhiza symbiosis

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Our study tests how soil and plant biodiversity can enhance sustainability of crop production in Kenya. We tested whether mixtures of maize varieties performed better than monocultures and tested their response to arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Mycorrhizal responsiveness differed significantly by maize variety, and genetic mixtures outperformed ...

An eQTL analysis of partial resistance to Puccinia hordei in barley [PDF]

, 2010
Background - Genetic resistance to barley leaf rust caused by Puccinia hordei involves both R genes and quantitative trait loci. The R genes provide higher but less durable resistance than the quantitative trait loci. Consequently, exploring quantitative

Leaf Rust Resistance Genes in Wheat Cultivars Registered in Russia and Their Influence on Adaptation Processes in Pathogen Populations

Agriculture, 2021
The main growing regions for winter wheat in the Russian Federation are the North Caucasian, Central Black Earth, and Central agroecological regions. Spring wheat crops dominate in the Urals, Volga region, and Western Siberia.

Breeding for multi‐stress resilience in crops: Myth or possibility?

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change threatens millions of farmers worldwide by exposing crops to multiple concurrent or sequential environmental stresses such as drought, heat, waterlogging, and diseases. Although crops have long been selected under naturally occurring multi‐stress conditions, breeding pipelines largely focus on optimal or single‐stress environments ...

From wild to tamed: Reimagining novel crops through omics and local plant diversity

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The global food system faces growing pressure from climate change, biodiversity loss, and rising nutritional demands. Agriculture has increased yields but reduced crop diversity, flavor, and nutritional quality, leaving societies vulnerable and dependent on a narrow set of staple species.

Population Differentiation of Wheat Leaf Rust Fungus Puccinia triticina in South Asia

, 2017
Leaf or brown rust caused by Puccinia triticina (Pt) is one of the most important diseases of wheat. Among the rusts, it is the most ubiquitous in all the wheatgrowing regions and causes considerable yield loss. Microsatellite marker-based genotyping and

Bridging Human and Plant Adaptations for Climate Resilience

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change is transforming agriculture through both gradual shifts and increasingly unpredictable extremes, challenging farmers' ability to protect crops and livelihoods. This study brings together farmer experiences and plant adaptation strategies to explore how people and plants respond to similar climate pressures.

Wheat Leaf Rust Fungus: RIMAPS Analysis to Detect Germ-tube Orientation Pattern [PDF]

, 2015
Wheat is severely affected by a destructive disease, leaf rust, caused by fungus, Puccinia triticina E. All over the world, wheat leaf rust reduces crop yield up to 10%. When the uredospore reaches the leaf surface develops germ-tubes, which are directed

Wheat rust evolution in Spain: an historical review

Phytopathologia Mediterranea, 2019
Rusts are important wheat diseases worldwide. The three rust diseases of wheat are yellow rust, leaf rust and stem rust, and each has characteristic features. The Guadalquivir valley in the south–west and Girona in the north–east are the areas Spain most
