Responses of Australian wheat varieties to stripe rust
Variety response to disease
can be expected to show local and regional variation
governed by a range of factors including crop vigour, time
of disease onset and the nature of pathogen populations. A
revision of stripe rust response among current Australian
wheat varieties is presented in reaction to a change in
pathotype in P. striiformis. This information represents a
collaborative effort among national pathologists and
breeders concerned with the need to provide the best
available information to the industry.
