Characterization and Use in Wheat Breeding of Leaf Rust Resistance Genes from Durable Varieties

Leaf rust is one of the most significant diseases of wheat worldwide. In Argentina, it is one of the main reasons for variety replacement that becomes susceptible after large-scale use. Some varieties showed durable resistance to this disease, including Buck Manantial and Sinvalocho MA. RILs (Recomb...
