The inheritance of resistance to stem rust in four durum wheats, namely P.I.168921, P.I.173401, Gaza, and C.I.7809 was studied. The variety P.I.168921 was found to possess two dominant genes Srt1 and Srt5, P.I.173401 two recessive genes srt6 and srt7, Gaza two dominant genes Srt8 and Srt9, and C.I.7809 genes Srt33 and Srt10, for resistance to Australian strains of Puccinia graminis tritici Erikss. & Henn. It was observed that the genes srt6, srt7, Srt9, and Srt10 were independent of genes already identified. Varieties Khapli, St.464, C.I.7778, and P.I.168921 had gene Srt1Srt1 in common; and varieties St.464, C.I.7778, and C.I.7809 gene Srt3 in common.

'French Peace,' an old wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar, apparently brought to Saskatchewan by settlers, probably carries genes Sr7a, Sr9a, and Sr13 for resistance to stem rust (Puccinia graminis tritici Eriks. and Henn.). Since two of the three genes have been found in tetraploid wheats, 'French Peace' could be derived from a hexaploid × tetraploid cross.

Twenty-two barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars and lines were evaluated for resistance to stem rust (Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks. & Henn.) race QCC in field trials over a 3-yr period, and the inheritance of resistance of several genotypes to race QCC was investigated using replicated F3 lines. Rust severities ranged from 17 to 58% between 14 different cultivars and lines which carried the stem rust resistance gene Rpg1, indicating that factors other than Rpg1 conferred resistance. Hietpas-5 (Rpg2) had moderate resistance while PI 382313 (Rpg3) had good resistance to race QCC. In the cross Hiproly-15/Peatland-9, F2 adult plants segregated 3R: 1S to race MCC, confirming the presence of gene Rpg1 in Peatland-9. Some F3 lines derived from F2 plants with Rpg1 were susceptible to race QCC, however, indicating that Rpg1 was ineffective against race QCC. A second gene in Peatland-9, designated for the interim as RpgU and independent of Rpg1, was shown to confer a moderate level of resistance to race QCC. Similar segregation patterns in the presence of race QCC and pedigree analysis suggested that the cultivars Husky and Diamond contain this gene. This gene is likely present in other related cultivars such as Vantage and Bonanza. Segregation in progeny of the cross Hiproly-15/Q21861 indicated that resistance to race QCC was controlled by two recessive genes in Q21861. Gene Rpg2, tested in F3 lines, was found to provide a moderate level of resistance to race QCC, similar to RpgU, but was less effective in the heterozygous condition. The phenotypic expression of RpgU differed from Rpg1, Rpg2, and Rpg3, suggesting that RpgU is a previously unreported gene for stem rust resistance in cultivated barley.

A type of dwarfism found in crosses involving the wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar Webster and a stem rust (Puccinia graminis tritici Erik. &Henn.) susceptible line, LMPG, proved to be due to a dominant gene from cv. Webster and a recessive gene from LMPG. The dominant gene is closely linked to the gene Sr30, which conditions stem rust resistance in cv. Webster and is on chromosome 5D. The dwarf plants have short, dark green, stiff leaves and rarely develop more than two leaves before dying.Key words: dwarfism, Triticum aestivum, Puccinia graminis tritici, stem rust.

Inheritance Of Resistance

The inheritance of resistance to stem rust (Puccinia graminis Pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks. and E. Henn.) was investigated in Triticum aestivum L. cv. Red Bobs. It carries a gene for stem rust resistance at the Sr7 locus that resembles Sr7b of Marquis, and a gene that is either Sr10 or, more likely, an allele, because Red Bobs is less resistant than the Marquis-Sr10 line to races C1 (17) and C17 (56).

Following emergence of Ug99, the new virulent race of Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici in Africa, a global effort for identification and utilization of new sources of Ug99-resistant germplasm has been undertaken. In this study, we conducted replicated experiments to evaluate the resistance of Iranian wheat germplasm to the TTKSK lineage of the Ug99 race of P. graminis f. sp. tritici. We also evaluated for presence of stem rust resistance genes (i.e., Sr2, Sr24, Sr26, Sr38, Sr39, Sr31, and Sr1RSAmigo) in wheat cultivars and breeding lines widely cultivated in Iran. Our phenotyping data revealed high levels of susceptibility to Ug99 in Iranian bread wheat germplasm. Our genotyping data revealed that Iranian cultivars do not carry Sr24, Sr26, or Sr1RSAmigo. Only a few salt-tolerant cultivars and breeding lines tested positively for Sr2, Sr31, Sr38, or Sr39 markers. In conclusion, the genetic basis for resistance to Ug99 in Iranian wheat cultivars was found to be vulnerable. Acquiring knowledge about existing resistance genes and haplotypes in wheat cultivars and breeding lines will help breeders, cereal pathologists, and policy makers to select and pyramid effective stem rust resistance genes.

The inheritance of resistance to oat crown rust was studied in three accessions of Avena sterilis L. Accession CAV 4274 originated from Morocco, CAV 4540 from Algeria, and CAV 3695 from Tunisia. Seedling rust tests on F2 backcross families indicated the presence of two dominant genes for crown rust resistance in CAV 4274. One of these, a gene conditioning resistance to most races tested, was linked or allelic to gene Pc-38, and was designated gene Pc-62. The second gene conferred resistance only to one of the six races studied, and was not tested further. In CAV 4540, a single dominant gene, Pc-63 was possibly allelic with Pc-62 and linked or allelic to Pc-38. Genes Pc-62 and 63 are generally similar to Pc-38 in their resistance spectrum, but these three genes are differentiated by races CR 102, CR 103, and CR 107. A single dominant gene in CAV 3695 appeared to be Pc-50.

The inheritance of resistance to Puccinia coronata, awn development, lemma pubescence, and lemma color were studied in the Avena sterilis accessions CAV 4248, CAV 4656, and CAV 4904. Three independent, partially dominant genes (Pc-64, Pc-65, Pc-66) in CAV 4248, one partially dominant gene (Pc-67) in CAV 4656, and a dominant gene (Pc-68) in CAV 4904 were identified which conferred resistance to P. coronata. Genes Pc-64, Pc-65, Pc-66, Pc-67, and Pc-68 conferred resistance to 13, 8, 6, 12, and 14 races, respectively, of the 14 races of P. coronata tested. Gene Pc-68 conferred resistance to all field isolates of P. coronata collected in Canada in 1981 and was found to be closely linked or allelic to gene Pc-46. Awns and lemma pubescence were inherited monogenically in crosses with all three CAV accessions. Grey lemma color was controlled by one gene in CAV 4248 and by two genes in CAV 4656. Brown lemma color was controlled by one gene, which was closely linked or pleiotropic with the gene for lemma pubescence in CAV 4904. There was no association between crown rust resistance and the three floret characters studied.

Urediniospores of Puccinia graminis tritici, form 21, were sown on buffer solutions covering the range from pH 3 to pH 8. Maximum germination was obtained between pH 5.8 and 6.5, with indications that if the point of maximum germination could be determined with precision it would be found to lie in the neighborhood of pH 6.2.The effect of buffered and unbuffered solutions of pure phenolic compounds on the germination of urediniospores was studied. Greater inhibition was obtained with unbuffered solutions owing to the additional effect of hydrogen ion concentration. In buffered solutions, at pH 6.0, germination was prevented by 45 p.p.m. of hydroquinone, 125 of o-cresol, 180 of anisic acid, 250 of benzoic acid, 340 of catechol, 400 of guaiacol and 600 of phenol. A number of other compounds were also studied. The inhibitory effects of compounds, of which the bactericidal effects are known, are fairly closely related to their bactericidal efficiency.Investigations were made of the inhibitory effects on spore germination and the growth of germ tubes, of aqueous dilutions of 15, 10, 5 and 2.5% of the press-juice of Vernal, Khapli, Marquis and Little Club wheats. Statistical treatment of the data accumulated in ten series of determinations, in which a total of 160,000 spores was counted, showed that significant differences occurred between varieties and that variations in the total solid content and hydrogen ion concentration of the press-juice had no consistent effect upon the results. Although the results were not entirely clear-cut, it is concluded that the varieties fall in the following order with respect to increasing inhibitory effect of their extracts: Vernal, Marquis, Khapli and Little Club. Since Vernal and Khapli are resistant to form 21 whereas Marquis and Little Club are susceptible, the results fail to show any relationship between the effects of host extracts on the germination of urediniospores, or on the growth of germ tubes, and the rust resistance of the variety.

Inheritance Of Rust Resistance

Thatcher was the predominant wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar on the Canadian prairies in the 1950s. Until race 15B (TMH) of stem rust (Puccinia graminis pers. f. sp. tritici Eriks. & Henn.) became widespread, Thatcher had good resistance to stem rust, but was susceptible to leaf rust (P. recondita f. sp. tritici Rob. ex Desm.). Although genes for stem rust resistance have been identified in Thatcher, the inheritance of its resistance has never been fully understood. The objective of this research was to attempt to elucidate the inheritance of the resistance of Thatcher and to determine why it had a reputation as a poor parent for rust resistance. Over a period of 40 yr, crosses and backcrosses to a susceptible genotype and two sets of single seed descent (SSD) lines were studied. The second set of SSD lines was tested with isolates of six races of stem rust to which Thatcher is resistant. The data showed that Thatcher is a very heterogenous cultivar with individual plants differing widely in the genes for stem rust resistance that they carry. The inheritance of rust resistance varied greatly from race to race and was often quite complex. Either complementary genes or a gene plus a suppressor appeared to condition resistance to one race. Most genes gave resistance to only one race. The presence of Sr5, which Thatcher is known to have obtained from Kanred, was confirmed. Most of its many additional genes probably came from Iumillo durum wheat. Key words: Stem rust, Thatcher wheat, single seed descent
