Abstract S udies on the sensitivity of certain wheat entries against leaf a d stript! rust in Egypt whet (Triticum aestivum L.) is liable to the att ck of many diseases in Egypt i.e. rusts, smuts, powdery mildew and some other diseases of minor importance. Rusts induce high losses to wheat in Egypt. The difficulty of controlling rusts a e due 10 it’s obligatory habit and to its dynamic nature. T e present study focused a spot light on certain topics releva t to thl~ application of genetic control of both leaf and stripe rusts t rough out the identification of the predominant races of leaf rust a d the isolates of stripe rust. The study also involved the distin on of certain effective genes of leaf rust via the inoculation of 18 leaf rust monogenic lines. The ultimate goal of such a study is to ontribute the breeding programme in the scope of rust resista ceo e stUdy included the testing of 36 wheat entries against the m re prevalent and virulent races of P. recondita (leaf rust) and a so against 3 isolates of stripe rust (P. striiformis) at seedling stage. On the other hand the same entries were subjected to the evalua ion sg,linst the two concemed diseases at adult stage. on e stt. dy also included the effect of different temperatures incubation periods for wheat entries. The evaluating of ic full! Jicides and 2 bioagents against leaf and stripe rusts rried 0~ during the study. effect of stripe rust (P. striiformis) on the chemical con . utions 1)1wheat kernels was also studied. of the preeent work could be summarized in the 1- Seve physi1)logic races of leaf rust (Puccinia recondita) were identi ed du ing 1996/1997 and 1997/1998 growing seasons. Race no 77 was the most predominant one followed by races no’s 7, 20, :~1,130 and 184. 2- The tudy gave evidence to the distinction of Lr’s 19 and 24 in contr IIing leaf rust uredospore populations throughout two seas ns. 3- Ten nd sb wheat entries proved to the resistant to leaf rust races viz. 77 and 57 in respect likewise 9, 13, 13 entries were resist nt to the 3 isolates of stripe rust (P. striiformis) at seedl ng sta!~e during 1996/1997. 4- The atchiug between leaf rust monogenic lines and certain whe s, whem inoculated with 34 single pustules of Puccinia reeo dita resulted in the postulation of genes i.e. 29, 39t 3 kat 16, 1 and ~:4in most of the tested entries as common genes. 5- The incuba tion periods were prolonged with the decreasing tern rature and the reverse was true with the test cultivars whe inocul ated with races 77 and 57 at seedling stage. 6- The field Elvaluation gave evidence to the superiority of entries l.e, akha 01, Giza 144, Giza 155, Tosson and Sakha 24 when ad ’:0 severe inoculation with stripe rust during two ns. The rest of tested entries exhibited a reaction ranged n .,. ace Sand 80 S·. The wheat entry i.e. Sakha 24 was cha cterizfK1 by the lowest Area Under Disease Progressive Cu e (AU[ ~PC),however the reverse was observed with Sids 7 and -9. C~nthe other hand, the entries showed significant diffe nces in stripe rust rate of increase and certain yield pa meters i.e. 1000 KW. and test weight. The highest loss (%) re:orded with cvs. Sids 5 and -9, conversely, salcha 10 exhi’ tt e least rate in this regard. 7~As reg rd to IBafrust evaluation, the tudy gave evidence to the distin ion of entries i.e. Lines 20 , -204. -206 which rated (TrS). The n~st of materials rated 5S to 80S. ev. l.e, Tosson exhibi eel the lowest (AUDPC) howe er the reverse was noticed with s. l.e. Sids-1t Giza 139. Som entries showed significant differ nces disease rate of, test wei ht and 1000 K.W. 8- The tudy gave evidence to th increasing efficiency of fungi ides Ll~.Fangshow. SumiooB,aramba, Punch and Impact in re pect ”,hen tested against bot~ of stripe and leaf rusts. On the 0 her hund, Plantvax, Plantgu~rd and trilogy occupied the seco d rank in this respect. . 9- The tudy Slave evidence to the increase of both peroxidase and olyphE~noloxidase in resista t entries comparable to the sus ptible ones. On the othe hand, irrespective of the pres nee 0f. significance betwee entries in the increasing activi of pcflyphenoloxidase, but . activity was rare. This may be d e to that cereals did not co tain polyphenol oxidase and its a ivity was related to host path gen interaction. 1Q-Ana omical characters were not nspicuous or clear cut to diffe entiate between resistant, moderate resistant and sus ptible entries the ratio of col enchymalsclerenchyma may be nsiderad a clear measureme t between entries. 11-Con mi”, I the effect of stri rust infection on chemical con titution of wheat kernels in ested verso the study gave evid nee to the presence higher humidity, lipids, ca hydrate contents in the tected grains. However, the stri rust inoCUlatedones exhi ited higher contents in ash, fibe and IM”Otein. |
