In 2002 and 2003, 1,300 isolates of Puccinia recondita f. sp. tritici were obtained from six commercial cultivars of wheat at three locations in the eastern forest-steppe region of Ukraine. All isolates were tested for virulence on an international set of eight differential cultivars. Seventeen known wheat leaf rust races and several new, unnamed races were identified. The most common races in each year were races 61, 149, and 192. In 2003, up to 20 isolates each of the seven most common leaf rust races plus 8 to 10 isolates of unnamed races were tested for virulence to 35 near-isogenic wheat lines with different single Lr genes for leaf rust resistance. Isolates were polymorphic for virulence on Lr1, Lr2a, Lr2b, Lr2c, Lr9, Lr19, Lr23, Lr26, and the combination Lr27 + Lr31. No isolates were found virulent on Lr24, Lr25, or Lr28, and few isolates were virulent on Lr9. Few isolates of known races but most isolates of the new, unnamed races were virulent on Lr19. The 35 Lr gene lines also were exposed to mixed-race inoculum in field plots to tests effectiveness of their resistance. Lines with Lr24, Lr25, and Lr28 suffered no leaf rust damage in the field, and lines with Lr9, Lr18, Lr35, Lr36, and the combination Lr27 + Lr31 showed less than 10% severity.

The inheritance of seedling resistance to leaf rust (Puccinia recondita) was studied in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars Rafaela and EAP 26127. Rafaela has genes Lr14b and Lr17 while EAP 26127 has Lr17. Lr17 was located on chromosome 2A, possibly the short arm, and was independent of Lr11.

Eleven lines of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) carrying resistance to leaf rust (Puccinia recondita Rob. ex. Desm.) derived from five accessions of Triticum speltoides Tausch were grown in yield tests in 1977 and 1979. The grain was tested for quality characteristics in both years. Although the lines had been backcrossed four or five times to either Manitou or Neepawa, only four of the eleven showed any real promise of equalling their recurrent parent in agronomic and quality characteristics. Lines derived from the same accession of T. speltoides were surprisingly variable. The generally deleterious effects of the transferred chromatin are due either to genes linked to the genes for leaf rust resistance plus incomplete compensation by the speltoides chromosome segment for the aestivum segment it replaced, or to the effects of additional translocations that were not eliminated during backcrossing. A second cycle of homoeologous recombination is proposed as a way to eliminate some of the deleterious genes.

The genetics of resistance to leaf rust (Puccinia recondita f. sp. tritici) was studied in the two common wheat (Triticum aestivum) cultivars Kenyon and Buck Manantial. Kenyon was shown to have genes Lr13 and Lr16, the same gene combination that is present in the cultivar Columbus. Buck Manantial, the leaf-rust resistant donor parent of Kenyon, has seedling genes Lr13 (or an allele), Lr16 and Lr17, and two for adult-plant resistance, Lr13 and an unidentified gene.Key words: Leaf rust resistance, Puccinia recondita f. sp. tritici, wheat (hard red spring)

A heterogeneous population of Puccinia recondita f.sp. tritici developed from randomly mated pycnial infections on Thalictrum speciosissimum was selected for 12 generations on three multilines composed of Thatcher wheat lines near-isogenic for leaf rust resistance genes. Multiline 1 was composed of 20% each of lines near-isogenic for resistance genes Lr2a, Lr3ka, Lr11, Lr17, and Lr24. Multiline 2 was composed of equal proportions each of Thatcher and the five near-isogenic lines in multiline 1. Multiline 3 was composed of 50% Thatcher and 10% each of the five near-isogenic lines. Diversity of virulence phenotypes as measured by the Shannon index declined most in the population selected on multiline 1. Phenotypes of P. r. tritici with virulence to three of the five resistance genes in the multilines were the predominant isolates in all three populations after 12 generations of selection. Frequency of phenotypes with virulence to resistance genes Lr2a and Lr11 significantly increased in all three populations. Virulence to Lr11 significantly increased in the multiline 3 population, and virulence to Lr24 increased in populations from multilines 2 and 3. Frequency of phenotypes with virulence to Lr3ka did not significantly change in any of the populations. Virulence phenotypes with an intermediate number of virulences appeared to have fitness advantage relative to other isolates on the three host multilines. These results indicate that use of wheat multilines may not necessarily stabilize selection for virulence complexity in P. r. tritici populations. Key words: mixtures, Triticum aestivum, wheat leaf rust.

Two accessions, V336 and V618, of the A. E. Watkins wheat (Triticum aestivum) collection were studied genetically for their resistance to leaf rust (Puccinia recondita). The two accessions have in common a dominant gene that gives a fleck infection type reaction to all the isolates of leaf rust used. This gene may be a previously unidentified gene and we have tentatively assigned the gene symbol LrW. Both accessions also have gene Lr33 and V336 has LrB.Key words: Triticum aestivum, wheat, leaf rust resistance
