Abstract
Abstract Stripe (yellow) rust caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) is the most devastating disease of wheat in Turkey. Virulence characterization of the Pst population is critical to prevent large-scale epidemics, by developing wheat cultivars with durable resistance against the disease. In this study, 38 Pst races, including 25 races that were not previously reported, were identified from 140 isolates obtained from most regions of Turkey from 2018 to 2020 using a differential set containing 18 single Yr gene wheat lines (NILs) of ‘Avocet’. Virulence to Yr15 was not observed among any of the isolates. Virulence to the remaining 17-Yr genes was detected at various frequencies. The frequencies of virulence to Yr6, Yr9, Yr7, Yr8, Yr43, YrExp2, Yr44, YrTr1, and Yr27 were high (57.1 to 100.0%), to Yr1, Yr17, Yr32, and YrTye were moderate (24.3 to 42.9%), and to YrSP, Yr24, and Yr10 were low (9.3 to 17.1%). Only one race was virulent to Yr5 (0.7%). Many of the races identified were common among regions, indicating that Pst races migrate throughout Turkey. However, the Black Sea (BS) and the Mediterranean (ME) regions were differentiated from other regions by unique races absent in other regions, and the Yr5-virulent race, respectively. To sum up, the virulences of the races identified and their distributions among regions provided an understanding of pathogen migration and may contribute to the development of resistant wheat cultivars against stripe rust.
期刊介绍:
Canadian Journal of Plant Pathology is an international journal which publishes the results of scientific research and other information relevant to the discipline of plant pathology as review papers, research articles, notes and disease reports. Papers may be submitted in English or French and are subject to peer review. Research articles and notes include original research that contributes to the science of plant pathology or to the practice of plant pathology, including the diagnosis, estimation, prevention, and control of plant diseases. Notes are generally shorter in length and include more concise research results. Disease reports are brief, previously unpublished accounts of diseases occurring on a new host or geographic region. Review papers include mini-reviews, descriptions of emerging technologies, and full reviews on a topic of interest to readers, including symposium papers. These papers will be highlighted in each issue of the journal and require prior discussion with the Editor-in-Chief prior to submission.
