Cover; Frontispiece; Foreword; Preface; Contents; CHAPTER 1 Wheat Rusts and the Genetic Bases of Disease Resistance; CHAPTER 2 The Gelles for Resistance to Leaf Rust in Wheat and Triticale; CHAPTER 3 The Genes for Resistance to Stem Rust in Wheat and Triticale; CHAPTER 4 The Genes for Resistance to Stripe Rust in Wheat and Triticale; REFERENCES; APPENDIX I: Species Names Used in the Text, Genomic Formulae and Synonyms; APPENDIX II: Pathotypes and Accessions (Cultures) Used in Photography; INDEX OF GENES FOR RUST RESISTANCE.
Although stem rust has been controlled by means of resistant cultivars, leaf and stripe rust continue as problems for many growing areas of the world. Wheat Rusts: An Atlas of Resistance Genes has been prepared by specialists from one of the leading international laboratories, and illustrates with colour photographs typical resistance phenotypes associated with most known genes for resistance to the three rust diseases of wheat. Relevant details for each gene include chromosome location, aspects of genetics and pathogen variation, the effects of environment on expression, origin, availability.
