Responses of Australian triticales to stripe rust
The detection of a new
pathotype of the wheat stripe rust pathogen, Puccinia
striiformis f.sp. tritici, was reported in October (see
Cereal Rust Report 2007, Volume 5 Number 3). This pathotype,
designated 134 E16 A+ J+ and referred to as the Jackie
pathotype, has caused increased stripe rust damage on
several triticale varieties. This report presents the best
available information on the expected responses of a range
of commercial triticales to stripe rust pathotypes likely to
be encountered in 2008.
