    Author(s): Yitagesu Tadesse*, Asela Kesho and Dereje Amare

    Wheat rusts and Septoria tritici blotch are among the most important constraints in wheat production in Ethiopia. The aim of this study was to study the geographical distribution of major wheat diseases such as stem rust, yellow rust, leaf rust & STB in central highland parts of Ethiopia and determine the reaction of wheat cultivars to wheat rusts in the country during 2020 cropping season. A total of 48 wheat fields were surveyed in major wheat growing areas of Oromia & Amhara Regions of South West Shewa, West Shewa & North shewa zones. Septoria tritici blotch and yellow rust were the most widely distributed disease in the surveyed fields with a prevalence percentage of 100 & 68.5% respectively. The overall mean incidence values for Septoria tritici blotch, yellow rust, stem rust and leaf rust were 73.32, 26.9, 15.7 and 0.12%, respectivel.. View more»
