In order to assess the reaction of different wheat genotypes to 134E134A+ race of yellow rust at adult plant stage, 100 wheat genotypes were evaluated at Ardabil and Moghan under field and mist irrigation conditions. Infection type was recorded at flag leaf stage when disease appeared in susceptible genotypes (infection of around 80%). Disease severity on leaves was evaluated by Modified Cobb’s Scale in which 0: immune, 0%-5%: resistant, 5%-10%: moderately resistant, 10%-30%: moderately susceptible, more than 30%: highly susceptible. Mean coefficient of infection and mean area under disease progress curve (AUDPC) of flag leaf were calculated in each region separately. Analysis of variance indicated significant difference between genotypes for all traits. Results of this experiment according to coefficient of infection indicated that in Ardabil area, 1% of the genotypes were Immu.. View More»
