Stripe (Yellow) rust caused by Puccinia striiformis f.sp. tritici (Pst) is important wheat diseases causing serious damage on cultivated susceptible variety. The yellow assessment was conducted during main rainy season of 2018/19 at Ada’a, Lume and Gimbichu using zigzag method assessment. Disease data’s, agro-eological data other parameters were recorded. disease prevalent all dis...

Information about temporal and spatial variability of fungal structures and host responses is scarce in comparison to the vast amount of genetic, biochemical, and physiological studies of host-pathogen interactions. In this study, we used avirulent wild type and virulent mutant isolates of Puccinia striiformis to characterize the interactions in wheat carrying yellow rust Yr2 resistance. Both c...

Stripe rust (yellow rust), caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, is one of the most devastating foliar diseases of wheat (Triticum aestivum) worldwide. Growing resistant cultivars is the best approach for control of the disease. Although the stripe rust resistance in spring wheat cv. Zak has been circumvented by a group of races of the pathogen predominant in the United States since 20...

Abstract Common in Fungal Extracellular Membrane (CFEM) domain proteins are considered to be unique fungi and closely related pathogenicity. However, the Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici ( Pst ) effector containing CFEM has not been reported. Here, we obtained an effector, PstCFEM1, a functional N-terminal signal peptide sequence from race CYR31. qRT-PCR assay indicated that transcript level...
