In recent years, severe wheat stem rust epidemics hit Ethiopia, sub-Saharan Africa’s largest wheat-producing country. These were caused by race TKTTF (Digalu race) of the pathogen Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici, which, in Ethiopia, was first detected at the beginning of August 2012. We use the incursion of this new pathogen race as a case study to determine likely airborne origins of fungal spores on regional and continental scales by means of a Lagrangian particle dispersion model (LPDM). Two different techniques, LPDM simulations forward and backward in time, are compared. The effects of release altitudes in time-backward simulations and P. graminis f. sp. tritici urediniospore viability functions in time-forward simulations are analyzed. Results suggest Yemen as the most likely origin but, also, point to other possible sources in the Middle East and the East African Rift Valley. This is plausible in light of available field surveys and phylogenetic data on TKTTF isolates from Ethiopia and other countries. Independent of the case involving TKTTF, we assess long-term dispersal trends (>10 years) to obtain quantitative estimates of the risk of exotic P. graminis f. sp. tritici spore transport (of any race) into Ethiopia for different ‘what-if’ scenarios of disease outbreaks in potential source countries in different months of the wheat season.

The inheritance of pathogenicity in wheat stem rust was studied in selfed cultures of races 29 and 111, F1 and F2 cultures of a cross between the two races and cultures from a backcross to race 29. The various cultures were tested on Marquis and Prelude and on a series of lines of these varieties carrying single genes for stem rust resistance. Virulence on Sr 5, Sr 6, Sr 8, Sr 9a, Sr 14 and a gene in Marquis was recessive and in each case there was a single gene for virulence corresponding to each gene for resistance. Virulence on Sr 1 was possibly controlled by two dominant complementary genes. There appeared to be two alleles for virulence on Prelude, one dominant and one recessive.
