Novel stripe rust all‐stage resistance loci identified in a worldwide collection of durum wheat using genome‐wide association mapping

Abstract Durumwheat [Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum (Desf.)] production is constrained by fungal diseases including stripe rust caused by Puccinia striiformis Westend. f. sp. tritici Erikss. (Pst). Continuous mining of germplasm for the discovery and deployment of stripe rust resistance (Yr) genes...

In this study, we evaluated a worldwide collection of 432 durum wheat accessions to seven U.S. Pst races that carry diverse virulence and avirulence combinations on wheat Yr genes.

Genome‐wide association studies (GWAS) using over 97,000 single‐nucleotide polymorphism markers generated from genotyping‐by‐sequencing of 364 accessions identified 56 quantitative trait loci (QTL) associated with all‐stage stripe rust resistance located on all 14 durum wheat chromosomes.
