The stripe rust epidemic in 2008
was the most extensive in the 30 year history of this disease in
Australia. Although the survey is not complete, this end of year
report serves to highlight the major trends in pathogen
variation that was observed throughout the season, and reported
in eight Cereal Rust Reports for 2008. A final detailed report
will be circulated in 2009.
