Analysis of DNA sequence variation among genotypes is useful for differentiation of wheat accessions, selection strategies and genetic development of crop plants. We screened molecular markers for yellow rust resistance genes (Yr7, Yr9, Yr15, Yr18, Yr26, and YrH52), which are in the gene-rich regions of wheat chromosomes 1B, 2B, and 7D, to investigate DNA sequence differences and repeat mo...

the stripe (yellow) rust in wheat is one of the most important plant diseases in iran. since 1993 several epidemics have occurred in iran causing the breakdown of widely util-ized sources of resistance in wheat cultivars. twenty-seven pathotypes were identified during 2003 and 2004 in greenhouse tests. pathotypes 6e6a+, 6e22a+, 6e130a+, 6e134a+, 6e142a+, 6e158a+, 134e130a+ and 134e142a+ were mo...

Puccinia striiformis f.sp. tritici (Pst) is the causal agent of stripe (yellow) rust on wheat. It seriously threatens wheat production worldwide. The obligate biotrophic fungus is highly capable of producing new virulent races that can overcome resistance. Studying the inheritance of Pst virulence using the classical genetic approach was not possible until the recent discovery of its sexual sta...

We have defined a network of interacting Drosophila cell surface proteins in which a 21-member IgSF subfamily, the Dprs, binds to a nine-member subfamily, the DIPs. The structural basis of the Dpr-DIP interaction code appears to be dictated by shape complementarity within the Dpr-DIP binding interface. Each of the six dpr and DIP genes examined here is expressed by a unique subset of larval and...

The Drosophila eye is a mosaic that results from the stochastic distribution of two ommatidial subtypes. Pale and yellow ommatidia can be distinguished by the expression of distinct rhodopsins and other pigments in their inner photoreceptors (R7 and R8), which are implicated in color vision. The pale subtype contains ultraviolet (UV)-absorbing Rh3 in R7 and blue-absorbing Rh5 in R8. The yellow ...

La roya amarilla, causada por el hongo Puccinia striiformis W., sigue siendo una enfermedad importante del trigo en la región de El Bajío, Noroeste México y los Valles Altos centro México. Durante ciclo 2014 se observó epidemia amarilla México, donde tomaron muestras analizaron líneas diferenciales invernadero. Los resultados indicaron que las combinaciones virulencia Yr1, Yr2, Yr3, Yr6, Yr7, Y...

Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici, is a devastating disease of wheat in Turkey and worldwide. This pathogen can overcome known resistance genes negatively affect the production. The objectives this study were to determine virulence patterns stripe rust isolates collected from coastal areas (Aegean Mediterranean regions) Turkey, examine genetic diversity populations simp...
