The cereal rust pathogens have survived the summer of 2008-09 and begun to appear in scattered situations
across the national winter cereal growing regions. The rusts confirmed to date include wheat stem rust, oat stem
rust, barley leaf rust and wheat stripe rust. The pathotype designations will be announced as data becomes
available. However this initial report is released in order to inform growers and advisors to remain alert to early
signs of rust in crops, and to report and sample these in order to maintain industry wide awareness.
