Abstract

Monosomic analysis of a wheat-rye recombinant line ‘Selection 212’ using leaf rust pathotypes 77-1, 77-3, 77-4 and 77-5 and stem rust pathotype 40A located the linked genes for leaf rust and stem rust resistance on chromosome 28. The leaf rust resistance gene was hemizygous ineffective against pathotypes 77-4 and 77-5. Similarly the stem rust resistance gene was hemizygous ineffective against pathotype 40A.
