Stem, Stripe and Leaf Rust Screening
The wheat rusts are caused by three species of the fungal genus Puccinia: stripe rust by Puccinia striiformis f.sp. tritici; leaf rust by Puccinia triticina; and stem rust by Puccinia graminis f.sp. tritici. Generally, these pathogens are confined to wheat
Crown rot testing
Crown Rot Testing Crown rot is the single biggest limitation to wheat and barley production in the northern grains region after the cereal rusts and is also an important disease in southern Australia. Whilst crop rotation can reduce the incidence
Late maturity α-amylase (LMA) in wheat – phenotyping
LMA screening is NOT conducted routinely under CAIGE, however some data on CAIGE materials has been provided by co-operators over the years. These data are presented below. Late maturity α-amylase (LMA) in wheat is a quantitative genetic defect present at
