Inheritance of seedling resistance to races 15 and 161 of leaf rust was investigated in the varieties Webster, Loros, Brevit, Carina, Malakof and Centenario. Backcross lines were developed in Thatcher and/or Prelude with leaf rust resistance derived from all the varieties except Brevit. The varieties and backcross lines were tested with nine races of rust. Webster was found to have the Lr2 gene which accounts for all of its resistance to the races used. Carina has an allele, Lr22, at the Lr2 locus, plus a gene tentatively assigned the symbol LrB, independent of the Lr2 locus which confers a type 2 reaction to races 15, 161 and probably several others. Resistance present in Loros is accounted for another allele, Lr24, at the Lr2 locus. Brevit also has an allele at the Lr2 locus which may be the same as that in Loros. In addition it probably has gene LrB conferring a type 2 reaction. Gene Lr1, which was independent of the Lr2 locus, accounts for all the detected resistance in Malakof. Centenario has the Lr1 gene and in addition has resistance to races 5 and 126a.The susceptible parents Thatcher and Prelude influence the dominance of the Lr2 alleles. The Lr22 allele in Carina x Prelude6 was partially dominant in crosses with Thatcher and completely dominant in crosses with Red Bobs. The Lr24 allele in Loros x Prelude6 was recessive in crosses with Thatcher and completely dominant in crosses with Prelude and Red Bobs.The expression of resistance of the Lr2 alleles to race 161 in Webster and Carina was different in crosses with Red Bobs than in those with Thatcher. In the crosses with Red Bobs one or more genes, which modified the degree of resistance to race 161, appeared to be segregating. This was not observed in crosses with Thatcher.

The gene for adult-plant resistance to race 9 of leaf rust (Puccinia recondita Rob. ex. Desm.) in the common wheat cultivar Thatcher (Triticum aestivum L.) was allelic to Lr22a, a gene for adult-plant leaf rust resistance previously transferred to hexaploid wheat from Aegilops squarrosa L. This gene, designated Lr22b, was linked with Tg, a gene for tenacious glumes, and W21, an inhibitor of waxy foliage, both known to be on chromosome arm 2Dα and linked with Lr22a.

The genetics of adult-plant resistance to leaf rust (Puccinia recondita Rob. ex. Desm.) was studied in a common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) introduction PI 250413, originally collected in Pakistan. The resistance, although variable in expression, was conditioned bx a single recessive gene not previously identified, which was inherited independently of Lr12, Lr13 and Lr22, three previously identified genes for adult-plant leaf rust resistance. The gene present in PI 250413 was also found in five introductions from Iraq.

Among the rust diseases, leaf rust of wheat caused by Puccinia triticina, is the most prevalent worldwide and causes significant yield losses. This study aimed to determine the genomic location of loci that control adult plant resistance (APR) to leaf rust in the pre-Green Revolution landrace accession, Aus27506, from the “Watkins Collection”. An Aus27506/Aus27229-derived F7 recombinant inbred line (RIL) population was screened under field conditions across three cropping seasons and genotyped with the iSelect 90K Infinium SNP bead chip array. One quantitative trait loci (QTL) on each of the chromosomes 1BL, 2B and 2DL explained most of the leaf rust response variation in the RIL population, and these were named QLr.sun-1BL, QLr.sun-2B and QLr.sun-2DL, respectively. QLr.sun-1BL and QLr.sun-2DL were contributed by Aus27506. QLr.sun-1BL is likely Lr46, while QLr.sun-2DL appeared to be a new APR locus. The alternate parent, Aus27229, carried the putatively new APR locus QLr.sun-2B. The comparison of average severities among RILs carrying these QTL in different combinations indicated that QLr.sun-2B does not interact with either of the other two QTL; however, the combination of QLr.sun-1BL and QLr.sun-2DL reduced disease severity significantly. In planta fungal quantification assays validated these results. The RILs carrying QLr.sun-1BL and QLr.sun-2DL did not differ significantly from the parent Aus27506 in terms of resistance. Aus27506 can be used as a source of adult plant leaf rust resistance in breeding programs.

A partially dominant gene for adult-plant leaf rust resistance together with a linked, partially dominant gene for stem rust resistance were transferred to the hexaploid wheat cultivar 'Marquis' from an amphiploid of Aegilops speltoides × Triticum monococcum by direct crossing and backcrossing. Pathological evidence indicated that the alien resistance genes were derived from Ae. speltoides. Differential transmission of the resistance genes through the male gametes occurred in hexaploid hybrids involving the resistant 'Marquis' stock and resulted in distorted segregation ratios. In heterozygotes, pairing between the chromosome arm with the alien segment and the corresponding arm of the normal wheat chromosome was greatly reduced. The apparent close linkage between the two resistance genes, 3 ± 1.07 crossover units, was misleading because of this decrease in pairing in the presence of the 5B diploidizing mechanism. The newly identified gene for adult-plant leaf rust resistance, located on chromosome 2B, is different from adult-plant resistance genes Lr12, Lr13, and Lr22 and from that in the hexaploid accession PI250413; it has been designated Lr35. It is not known whether the newly transferred gene for stem rust resistance differs from Sr32, also derived from Ae. speltoides and located on chromosomes 2B.Key words: hexaploid, Triticum, Aegilops, aneuploid, Puccinia graminis, Puccinia recondita.

The LrT gene for resistance to leaf rust present in the common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) backcross line RL 6049, and originally derived from the cultivar Terenzio, was shown to be on chromosome 4B. Farther analysis indicated that it is on the long arm of this chromosome, 2.9 ± 1.3 crossover units from the centromere. It is independent of or loosely linked with Sr7a, a gene for stem rust resistance known to be on the long arm of chromosome 4B. It is inherited independently of leaf rust resistance genes Lr1, Lr2a, Lr3, Lr10, Lr14b, Lr16, Lr17 and Lr18. LrT has been redesignated Lr30.
