Nuclear exchange generates population diversity in the wheat leaf rust pathogen Puccinia triticina [PDF]
In clonally reproducing dikaryotic rust fungi, non-sexual processes such as somatic nuclear exchange are postulated to play a role in diversity but have been difficult to detect due to the lack of genome resolution between the two haploid nuclei.

Mechanism of Wheat Leaf Rust Control Using Chitosan Nanoparticles and Salicylic Acid [PDF]
Wheat leaf rust is one of the world’s most widespread rusts. The progress of the disease was monitored using two treatments: chitosan nanoparticles and salicylic acid (SA), as well as three application methods; spraying before or after the inoculation by

Cloning of the broadly effective wheat leaf rust resistance gene Lr42 transferred from Aegilops tauschii [PDF]
The wheat wild relative Aegilops tauschii was previously used to transfer the Lr42 leaf rust resistance gene into bread wheat. Lr42 confers resistance at both seedling and adult stages, and it is broadly effective against all leaf rust races tested to ...

Comparative transcriptome analysis of two contrasting resistant and susceptible Aegilops tauschii accessions to wheat leaf rust (Puccinia triticina) using RNA-sequencing [PDF]
Leaf rust, caused by Puccinia triticina Eriks., is the most common rust disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) worldwide. Owing to the rapid evolution of virulent pathotypes, new and effective leaf rust resistance sources must be found.

Monitoring Wheat Leaf Rust and Stripe Rust in Winter Wheat Using High-Resolution UAV-Based Red-Green-Blue Imagery [PDF]
During the past decade, imagery data acquired from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), thanks to their high spatial, spectral, and temporal resolutions, have attracted increasing attention for discriminating healthy from diseased plants and monitoring the ...

Genome-Wide Identification of Effector Candidates With Conserved Motifs From the Wheat Leaf Rust Fungus Puccinia triticina [PDF]
Rust fungi secrete various specialized effectors into host cells to manipulate the plant defense response. Conserved motifs, including RXLR, LFLAK-HVLVxxP (CRN), Y/F/WxC, CFEM, LysM, EAR, [SG]-P-C-[KR]-P, DPBB_1 (PNPi), and ToxA, have been identified in ...

Fine Mapping of the Wheat Leaf Rust Resistance Gene Lr42 [PDF]
Leaf rust caused by Puccinia triticina Eriks is one of the most problematic diseases of wheat throughout the world. The gene Lr42 confers effective resistance against leaf rust at both seedling and adult plant stages.

Genome-assisted identification of wheat leaf rust resistance gene Lr.ace-4A/Lr30 [PDF]
Leaf rust is a devastating disease of wheat. Growing rust-resistant wheat varieties is the best strategy to mitigate this threat. Here, we generate a 10.51-gigabase chromosome-scale assembly of the durum wheat landrace PI 192051.

Advances in gene cloning and functional genomics approaches for wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) improvement [PDF]
Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a globally important cereal crop which provides ∼20% calories in human diet. Identifying genes and elucidating their functions is still challenging in wheat due to its large genome (∼16 Gb) with significant amount of repetitive elements.

Mapping novel yellow and leaf rust loci and predicting resistance in cross derived Canadian durum wheat. [PDF]
Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. durum) suffers substantial yield losses from yellow rust (Puccinia striiformis) and leaf rust (Puccinia triticina).
