Stem rust is one of the most potentially harmful wheat diseases, but has been effectively controlled in China since 1970s. However, the interest in breeding wheat with durable resistance to stem rust has been renewed with the emergence of Ug99 (TTKSK) virulent to the widely used resistance gene Sr31, and by which the wheat stem rust was controlled for 40 years in wheat production area worldwide...

The Volga region is one of the main grain-producing regions Russia. Wheat stem rust caused by Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici among most destructive fungal diseases wheat. Recently, its harmfulness has increased in region. In this regard, an analysis resistance and diversity Sr genes Russian wheat cultivars necessary. work, 126 (including 23 durum 103 bread cultivars) approved for use were eva...

The traditional surrogate measures of safety (like number of vehicles in dilemma zone) fail to quantify the risk of crash. Traffic conflict has been proposed as an improved surrogate measure of safety for operations at isolated intersections to quantify the risk. This paper develops a dilemma zone hazard function estimating procedure to obtain the probability of traffic conflict occurring. This...

pathogenicity of wheat stem rust was investigated during two cropping seasons of the years 2010 and 2011. towards this end, 47 isogenic lines of wheat stem rust along with 43 cultivars/lines of the crop were tested in field conditions (natural infection) and also in the greenhouse conditions. the results showed, similarity of pathogenicity for plants carring gene/s sr7b, sr8a, sr8b, sr9b, sr9d,...

in order to study the effect of synorhizobium meliloti on growth and nutrients uptake of sesame, a greenhouse test was carried out. the first isolates investigated in iaa and siderophore producing and their ability in solubilizing inorganic phosphates. the results showed that all of isolates were able to produce auxin with different among. the maximum amount of iaa production was 59.5 g ml-1 th...
