Inheritance of resistance to leaf rust (Puccinia recondita f. sp. tritici) in two durum wheat lines
Main Article Content
Abstract
Durum wheat (Triticum durum desf.) in India is grown in large area under rainfed as well as irrigated conditions. Brown rust (Puccinia recondita Rob.Erikss. and E. Henn. ex. Desm. f. sp. triticl) of wheat is widely distributed and pathotype 77 group is considered as the most virulent knocking down the resistance of several bread wheat genotypes. Greater proportion of durum wheat varieties have been found resistant to race 77 [1-2]. The present study was to investigate the inheritance of resistance to most virulent pathotype 77-5 (121 R63-1)· in two durum wheat varieties viz. CPAN 6051 and Malavika (HD 4502).
