A new stripe rust pathotype adapted to triticale
A feature of the stripe rust
epidemic in 2007 has been the unexpectd severe rust responses in
commercial fields of triticale (Cereal Rust Report Volume 5,
Issue 2, September 2007). The most notable cultivar affected has
been Jackie, and severe stripe rust has been reported on
this cultivar from all areas of New South Wales and one location
in Victoria. Stripe rust samples from other triticale cultivars
in all eastern states have also been received. In contrast,
there have been no stripe rust samples from triticale in Western
Australia.
