AbstractIn 1995–2004 we investigated leaf rust virulence in Slovakia on Thatcher near isogenic lines (NILs) with genes Lr1, Lr2a, Lr2b, Lr2c, Lr3a, Lr9, Lr10, Lr11, Lr15, Lr17, Lr19, Lr21, Lr23, Lr24, Lr26 and Lr28. According to reaction of leaf rust isolates resistance genes Lr9 and Lr19 were completely effective to all examined pathotypes in all years. The resistance genes Lr24 and Lr28 were also completely effective to all examined pathotypes till the year 2001. In the year 2001 we detected 20% and 10% virulent isolates on NILs Lr24 and Lr28, respectively. According to the reaction of investigated isolates from the territory of Slovakia on NILs, resistance genes Lr2c, Lr3a, Lr11, Lr17, Lr21, Lr23 and Lr26 were mostly ineffective.During the 1994–2004 period we detected 16 races of leaf rust (races 2, 2SaBa, 6, 6SaBa, 12, 12SaBa, 14, 14SaBa, 57, 57SaBa, 61, 61SaBa, 62SaBa, 77, 77SaBa, 77/57SaBa). The most frequently determined races were 61SaBa and 77SaBa, which occurred in all years. Among frequently determined races we can assign race 12SaBa as well.According to the field tests in 2001–2004 good resistance to leaf rust was displayed by the cvs Arida (Lr13, Lru), Eva (Lr3, Lru) and Solara (Lru).

Collections of Puccinia triticina, the wheat leaf rust fungus, were obtained from Great Britain, Slovakia, Israel, Germany, Australia, Italy, Spain, Hungary, South Africa, Uruguay, New Zealand, Brazil, Pakistan, Nepal, and eastern and western Canada. All single-uredinial isolates derived from the collections were tested for virulence polymorphism on 22 Thatcher wheat lines that are near-isogenic for leaf rust resistance genes. Based on virulence phenotype, selected isolates were also tested for randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) using 11 primers. The national collections were placed into 11 groups based on previously established epidemiological zones. Among the 131 single-uredinial isolates, 105 virulence phenotypes and 82 RAPD phenotypes were described. In a modified analysis of variance, 26% of the virulence variation was due to differences in isolates between groups, with the remainder attributable to differences within groups. Of the RAPD variation, 36% was due to differences in isolates between groups. Clustering based on the average virulence distance (simple distance coefficient) within and between groups resulted in eight groups that differed significantly. Collections from Australia-New Zealand, Spain, Italy, and Britain did not differ significantly for virulence. Clustering of RAPD marker differences (1 - Dice coefficient) distinguished nine groups that differed significantly. Collections from Spain and Italy did not differ significantly for RAPD variation, neither did collections from western Canada and South America. Groups of isolates distinguished by avirulent/virulent infection types to wheat lines with resistance genes Lr1, Lr2a, Lr2c, and Lr3 also differed significantly for RAPD distance, showing a general relationship between virulence and RAPD phenotype. The results indicated that on a worldwide level collections of P. triticina differ for virulence and molecular backgrounds.

In 2005, 2006 and 2008 the virulence of wheat leaf rust population was studied on Thatcher near-isogenic lines with Lr1, Lr2a, Lr2b, Lr2c, Lr3a, Lr9, Lr10, Lr13, Lr15, Lr17, Lr19, Lr21, Lr23, Lr24, Lr26 and Lr28. Samples of leaf rust (141 in total) were obtained from different parts of Slovakia. Resistance gene Lr9 was effective to all tested isolates except three isolates from 2008. No virulence was found to Lr19 and genes Lr24 and Lr28 were also highly effective. Low incidence of virulence to Lr2a was observed. Sixty-five winter wheat cultivars registered in Slovakia were tested with seven leaf rust isolates in the greenhouse. Cultivar Bona Dea was the most resistant of all.

Hybrid Lines

The individual use of single race-specific resistance genes with major phenotypic effects has rarely provided lasting resistance. However, breeding and combining or pyramiding of resistance genes into individual cultivars has had considerable success, particularly in situations in which the pathogen does not reproduce sexually, as in the case of wheat leaf rust pathogen. In European-Mediterranean region perfomed international investigations of wheat leaf rust proved that breeding of new lines of wheat resistant to Puccinia triticina Eriks. for differentiation of pathogen population, as well as for sources of durable resistance is necessary. Breeding of such resistant lines has proved necessary due to the unsatisfatory survey results of these regions on standard isogenic Lr lines. It has become clear that these regions needed new, more efficient differential resistance genes, as well as sources of resistance. In the beginning, after extensive screening tests of several International Rust Nurseries, 18 donors of resistance had been selected as crosses with recurrent parents' varieties Princ and Starke. These hybrid lines had been comparatively tested with twenty six Lr single gene lines using twenty especially virulent cultures of P. triticina in order to check the presence of these known Lr genes in our hybrid lines. Considerable influence of recurrent parent to the number of resistant genes in used donors was demonstrated. On the other hand, considerable influence of the pathogen culture was established to the number of resistance genes in used donors. In order to enhance resistance and pyramiding genes in these hybrids, the most interesting selected eight lines have been crossed with only effective isogenic ones, containing the strong genes Lr9, Lr19 and Lr24. On the basis of different segregation rations of all crossing combinations it was proved that no one of resistant donors contained the applied strong resistant genes. It means that our hybrid lines contained resistant genes from the donors, as well as three strong resistant genes Lr9, Lr19 and Lr24.

Physiologic Races

Knowledge of the geographical distribution for physiologic races of Puccinia triticina and identification of leaf rust resistance genes (Lr ,s) in the recent Egyptian wheat cultivars are essential for maximizing resistance in future-bred cultivars. The  aim   of   this   study   was   to   know   the   status  of resistance in Egyptian wheat cultivars against wheat leaf rust and the most frequent race distributed. Infected samples were collected from five Governorates, i.e.,  Dakahlia,  Kafr el-Sheikh,  Beheira,  Sharqia  and  Sohag comprised the wheat growing area in Egypt. These samples were isolated, purified and identified on the differential stes. Gene postulation was done using fifteen identified races on Egyptian wheat cultivars correlated with Lr genes. Thirty three races identified during three seasons 2009/2010, 2010/2011 and 2011/2012. The most frequent race was TK (10%) followed by race BB (7.58%), PK (6.55%), TT (4.82%), PT (3.79%) and MT (3.44%). Moreover, races; BB, TT and PT were present during three seasons while these races appeared in some Governorates and disappeared in other Governorates. On the other hand, the most frequently occurring gene in ten Egyptian wheat cultivars was Lr35 (70%), followed by Lr22 (60%), Lr27 (40%), Lr34 (30%), Lr19 (30%),Lr18 (10%),Lr36 (10%) and Lr46 (10%), eight out of sixteen Lr genes were not present in the tested cultivars. It is concluded that there was a good variation in Lr genes carried by wheat cultivars commercially grown in Egypt. Therefore, strategies for deploying resistance genes to prolong effective disease resistance are suggested to control wheat leaf rust disease.

Populations of Puccinia triticina (causal agent of wheat leaf rust) in Ontario, Quebec, Manitoba, and Saskatchewan were analysed for frequency of isolates with virulence to leaf rust resistance genes Lr1, Lr2a, Lr2c, Lr3, Lr9, Lr16, Lr24, Lr26, Lr3ka, Lr11, Lr17, and Lr30 for the years 1987-1997. Winter wheats in the southern plains of the United States with resistance genes Lr24, Lr26, Lr11, Lr3ka, Lr17, and Lr16 selected virulent P. triticina phenotypes in the Manitoba and Saskatchewan population. The P. triticina population in Quebec and Ontario was comparatively stable, showing no directional trends in selection of virulence phenotypes. In the Manitoba and Saskatchewan population, diversity of virulence phenotypes changed relatively little despite the selection that occurred in this population. The average number of virulences per isolate in the Manitoba and Saskatchewan population increased from 1987 to 1994 during the period of selection for virulence to Lr24, Lr26, Lr3ka, and Lr11, and declined from 1995 to 1997 when selection for virulence to Lr16 and Lr17 occurred. The most complex virulence phenotypes were not necessarily selected in the Manitoba and Saskatchewan population because of how the resistance genes were deployed in the host population and the nonrandom distribution of virulences in the P. triticina population.Key words: Puccinia recondita f.sp. tritici, specific resistance, wheat leaf rust, Triticum aestivum, specific virulence.

In 2012–2015 the virulence of the wheat leaf rust (Puccinia triticina Eriks.) population was studied on Thatcher near-isogenic lines with Lr1, Lr2a, Lr2b, Lr2c, Lr3a, Lr9, Lr10, Lr11, Lr13, Lr15, Lr17, Lr19, Lr21, Lr23, Lr24, Lr26 and Lr28. Samples of leaf rust were obtained from different parts of the Czech Republic. A total of 163 wheat leaf rust isolates were analysed. No virulence for the resistance gene Lr9 was found. Virulence for Lr19 was found only in one isolate in 2015. A lower frequency of virulence to Lr24, Lr2a, 2b, 2c and Lr28 was also observed. The presence of Lr10, Lr24, Lr26, Lr28 and Lr37 in registered cultivars was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) molecular markers.

Virulence of the wheat leaf rust populations of 1999 and 2000 from Slovakia was studied on Thatcher near-isogenic lines (NILs) with genes Lr1, Lr2a, Lr2b, Lr2c, Lr3a, Lr9, Lr10 (only in 2000), Lr11, Lr15, Lr17, Lr19, Lr21, Lr23, Lr24, Lr26 and Lr28. Seven pathotypes were determined from 36 rust samples in 1999, and 17 pathotypes from 45 rust samples in 2000. The frequency of virulence on Lr1, Lr2a and Lr2b was relatively low, and there was no virulence on Lr9, Lr19, Lr24 and Lr28. The frequency of virulence on Lr2c, Lr15, Lr23 and Lr26 varied between 53.0 and 97.8%. All isolates were virulent on Lr3, Lr11, Lr17 and Lr21. The identified pathotypes conformed with races 61SaBa, 57SaBa, 12SaBa, 6SaBa, 77SaBa, 6, 61 and 2SaBa. In 1999 races 61SaBa, 77SaBa and 57SaBa prevailed, in 2000 races 61SaBa, 57SaBa, 12SaBa, 6SaBa and 77SaBa were prevalent. Data on the reactions of 18 cultivars and advanced lines to six rust isolates of 2000 representing different pathotypes and to one isolate from the collection (race 14) are presented.
