註釋Although stem rust is mostly controlled by means of resistance cultivars, leaf and stripe rust continue as major problems in many wheat-growing areas of the world. Wheat Rusts: An Atlas of Resistance Genes provides a basis to identify genes for resistance to stem, leaf and stripe rusts of wheat. Typical phenotypes associated with most known genes for resistance to these three diseases are illustrated in full colour. This book will assist plant breeders and pathologists to identify candidate resistance genes, thereby saving substantial time and resources. Prepared by well-known specialists from a leading international laboratory, Wheat Rusts: An Atlas of Resistance Genes comprises an introductory chapter, details of individual resistance genes, appendices and an index. Details for each gene include chromosome location, aspects of genetics and pathogen variation, the effect of environment of expression, origin, availability in genetic and breeding stocks and use in agriculture.
