Rust-sugar Cane Interaction - Possible Application of Serological Methods for Early Selection to Rust Disease
نویسنده
چکیده
Antigens and antisera from in vitro cultures of Puccinia melanocephala Sydow, uredospores collected from the field and sugar cane varieties were obtained. Cross-reactions were detected between the fungi and plants by counterimmunoelectrophoresis, immunoelectrophoresis and indirect ELISA. The last technique detected more antigenic relationships with the susceptible plants. This result may be used to study the role of these antigens and their possible application in selection for resistance.

Association between Nutrients and Rust in Sugarcane in Kwazulu-natal
Brown (common) rust has recently been prevalent in the South African sugar industry, particularly on N29, a sugarcane variety that is often severely affected by the disease. Cool, moist conditions have favoured the development of rust, but there has been a tendency for more severe infections to be associated with well grown sugarcane. To investigate this observation, two parallel rows, one with...

Using spectroradiometry and remote sensing techniques is an effective and rapid method in diagnosing vegetation diseases which enforced mostly by using spectral vegetation indices and statistical methods. The present study aimed to deploy encoding technique for the reflectance spectrum of the wheat leaves to assess the severity of the Rust disease. This is unlike to the spectral vegetation ind...

An attempt has been made to assess the status of different cane diseases in the South African sugar industry. Factors taken into account are present incidence, potential for further spread,, estimated losses in yield and possibilities for control. It is shown that diseases are causing significant losses in yield but that the major proportion of present losses, that due to ratoon stunting diseas...

To investigate the effect of yellow rust disease on some agronomic and physiological characteristics of bread wheat cultivars, two field experiments were conducted in Agricultural Research Station of Miandoab in West Azerbaijan, Iran, in 2013-2014 and 2014-2015 cropping seasons. Experimental treatments were arranged as factorial in randomized complete block design with three replications. Treat...
متن کاملIdentifying Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) and Developing Diagnostic Markers Linked to Orange Rust Resistance in Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.)
Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is an important economic crop, contributing up to 80% of table sugar used in the world and has become a promising feedstock for biofuel production. Sugarcane production has been threatened by many diseases, and fungicide applications for disease control have been opted out for sustainable agriculture. Orange rust is one of the major diseases impacting sugarcane produc...
