Abstract:Preventing the widespread occurrence of stripe rust in wheat largely depends on the identification of new stripe rust resistance genes and the breeding of cultivars with durable resistance. We obtained a wheat–tetraploid Thinopyrum elongatum 6E (6D) substitution line and determined that chromosome 6E contains genetic material conferring superior resistance to stripe rust at the adult stage. In this study, three novel wheat–tetraploid Th. elongatum translocation lineswere generated from the offspring of a cross… Show more
