Wheat stem rust, caused by the fungus Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), is a notoriously
damaging disease of wheat and barley. Pgt requires two hosts to complete its lifecycle; …

Crops are constantly exposed to pathogenic microbes. Rust fungi are examples of these
harmful microorganisms, which have a major economic impact on wheat production. To …

Leaf rust (LR) is the most widespread disease of common wheat worldwide. In order to
evaluate leaf rust resistance, 70 uncharacterized wheat cultivars and promising lines with …

The rust diseases, including leaf rust caused by Puccinia triticina (Pt), stem rust caused by P.
graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), and stripe rust caused by P. striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), are major …

Rye (Secale cereale L.) is considered the most tolerant cereal crop, both to biotic and abiotic
stresses. Below, we present the current knowledge about the genetic background of the …

Crown rust, one of the most destructive diseases of oat, regularly occurs worldwide and
leads to significant yield losses. The constant evolution of the Puccinia coronata f. sp …

The objective of this paper was to measure resistance to Puccinia coronata f. sp. avenae
(Pca) in a set of 63 previously uncharacterised new and historical oat cultivars representing …

In this study we evaluated eleven candidate reference genes in Avena sativa during
compatible and incompatible interactions with two different pathotypes of Puccinia coronata …

Crown rust, caused by Puccinia coronata f. sp. avenae, is the most widespread and harmful
fungal disease of oat. The best defense against the pathogen is use of cultivars with genetic …

Leaf rust (LR) caused by Puccinia recondita f. sp. secalis (Prs) is a highly destructive
disease in rye. However, the genetic mechanisms underlying the rye immune response to …
