Black Stem Rust

A genetical study of resistance of wheat to black stem rust, and a plant breeding attack on the rust problem are described. A large F2 population of the cross Vernal (T. dicoccum) × Marquis (T. vulgare) was grown under severe natural epidemic conditions in the field and hundreds of F3 progenies were exposed in the seedling stage, under controlled conditions, to pure physiologic forms of rust. In the field Vernal is highly resistant and Marquis susceptible to most forms of stem rust. Resistance in the field proved incompletely dominant and appeared to be governed by a single genetic factor. Marquis and Vernal were found to differ by one main genetic factor, Rb, for seedling reaction to form 21. This factor Rb, carried by Vernal, also governs seedling resistance to forms 17, 29 and 36 and appears to be responsible for the slight seedling resistance of Vernal to form 27. There was some evidence that the factor Rb is the same factor that controls the resistance of the F2 plants to the forms of rust in the field (forms 17, 21, 29 and 36 were known to be present.) A different factor Ra causes the resistance of Marquis seedlings to form 27. Vernal resistance was not found to be associated closely with the seed shape of that variety nor with its adherence of glumes to the seed.

Black Stem Rust

The paper reports on the black stem rust epidemic in South-West Finland in summer 1951, primarily from a plant breeder’s point of view. The report is based on the material collected by the Agricultural Research Centre, Department of Plant Breeding, from the spring wheat cultivations of South-West Finland and the Department’s trial field at Jokioinen. 1. Black stem rust was quite general in spring wheat throughout the southwest of Finland. In the extreme south-western part of the country the crop losses caused by drought and black stem rust were up to and over 50 per cent. In the eastern district of the area under review the damage by black stem rust was negligible in spite of heavy infection. 2. The coefficient of the correlation between the amount of black stem rust and 1,000 grain weight in the material collected from farms was —0.77 ± 0.04, and in a material obtained from the trial field —0.81 ± 0.05. 3. All the varieties grown in South-West Finland were susceptible to black stem rust. Kärn II, Diamant and Diamant II showed practically the same degree of infection. Thanks to its early ripening, the early Apu wheat in certain cases avoided heavy black stem rust infection. 4. On the trial field the north European varieties proved definitely more susceptible than many of the American varieties. Black stem rust was the most widespread of the wheat rusts in summer 1951 (cf. Table 3). 5. The younger breeding material revealed clearly the general susceptibility to black stem rust of the origins. It also showed the favourable effect on the descendants of the resistant parent strains employed in certain crosses. 6. A study of the origins of the Finnish varieties showed that hardly any varieties resistant to black stem rust have been employed as parents for our present commercial varieties.

Black Stem Rust

Abstract Five wheat cultivars (8/172, 8/70, Tammuz/4, Guard and 124) were planted in the field at the Baladrooz district, Diyala province, Iraq during winter season 2011 to monitor the emergence of Ug 99 on different wheat cultivars and evaluate their performance under similar conditions in the field. The experimental unit consisted of 15 plots in area 25 m2 for each plot according to randomized complete block design. Results showed all cultivars of wheat were not exposure to infection by the black stem rust disease (Ug 99), cultivar of 8/172 gave the highest number of spikes /m2, weight of grains /m2 (g) and weight of grains /25 m2 (g) from another treatments which recorded (401.0, 601.5g and 15037.5 g) respectively. Wheat cultivars of Tammuz/4 and 124 gave the highest total weight of 50 plants which recorded (140 g), whereas Tammuz/4 surpassed other treatments in plant height (79 cm) and 124 cultivar was superior from other treatments in weight of 1000 grains (36.3 g).
