Stripe (yellow) rust, caused by P uccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (P st), is a serious disease of
wheat occurring in most wheat areas with cool and moist weather conditions during the …

Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis, has been an important disease of wheat, barley,
rye, triticale and certain graminaceous hosts for centuries. The significance of the disease on …

Isolates of recently spreading races of yellow rust from wheat and triticale in Europe were
analysed using virulence phenotypic data of 2605 isolates sampled in 12 countries between …

Breeding new crop varieties with resistance to the biotic stresses that undermine crop yields
is tantamount to increasing the amount and quality of biological capital in agriculture …

Stripe rust of wheat, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. xtritici, is one of the most important
diseases of wheat worldwide. This review presents basic and recent information on the …

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 …

Some of the most striking and extreme consequences of rapid, long-distance aerial
dispersal involve pathogens of crop plants. Long-distance dispersal of fungal spores by the …

Analyses of large-scale population structure of pathogens enable the identification of
migration patterns, diversity reservoirs or longevity of populations, the understanding of …

Novel pathogens continue to emerge in human, domestic animal, wildlife and plant
populations, yet the population dynamics of this kind of biological invasion remain poorly …

This review takes an evolutionary view of breeding crops for durable resistance to disease.
An understanding of coevolution between hosts and parasites leads to predictors of …
