Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is one of the most destructive diseases of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) worldwide. Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn. (2n = 28, PPPP), one of the wild relatives of wheat, exhibits resistance to stripe rust. In this study, wheat-A. cristatum 6P disomic addition line 4844-12 also exhibited resistance to stripe rust. To identify the s...

Rust fungi are devastating plant pathogens and cause a large economic impact on wheat production worldwide. To overcome this rapid loss of resistance in varieties, we generated stable transgenic wheat plants expressing short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) targeting potentially vital genes of Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst). Protein kinase A (PKA) has been proved to play important roles in ...

Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst)’nin neden olduğu sarı pas hastalığı, buğday bitkisinin en yıkıcı hastalığı olup, bu hastalık ile mücadelede etkili kontrol yöntemi dayanıklı bitki kullanılmasıdır. Bunun için yaygın olarak yetiştirilen çeşitlerin mevcut popülasyonuna karşı veya virülensliği yüksek olan Pst ırk/ırklarına test edilmesi gerekmektedir. Çalışma kapsamında, Türkiye'de tescill...

Plant cell walls are composed of polysaccharides such as cellulose, hemicelluloses, and pectins, whose location function differ depending on plant type. UDP-Ara mutases (UAMs) have been reported to play important roles in development response various stresses (abiotic biotic). However, little work has UAM wheat. In this study, we dissected the role family member, UAM3, during interaction betwee...

Abstract Background Yellow (stripe) rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is an economic disease of wheat. Growth-promoting fungi (GPF) such as Trichoderma asperellum and Penicillium simplicissimum have been investigated for their potential to control yellow rust involvement in gene expression four PR proteins all-stage resistance. Results Wheat plants (cv. Sids-12) treated...

Yellow (stripe) rust, caused by the biotrophic fungus Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), stands as most serious wheat disease worldwide, affecting approximately 88% of world production. Even though yellow rust generally develops in cool humid weather conditions, expansion new races adapted to warmer climates threatens zones where severe P. epidemics were infrequent, such Andalusian crop...

The biotrophic parasitic fungus Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) causes stripe rust, a devastating disease of wheat, endangering global food security. Because the Pst population is highly dynamic, it is difficult to develop wheat cultivars with durable and highly effective resistance. Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are widely used as molecular markers in genetic studies to determine po...
