Sources of resistance to Cephalosporium gramineum in Triticum and agropyron species

Resistance to the soil-borne pathogen Cephalosporium gramineum was evaluated in Agropyron elongatum, A. intermedium, A. intermedium var. trichophorum , an Agrotriticum, and eight species of Triticum . Only A. elongatum and A. intermedium showed high levels of resistant. Agrotriticum (56 chromosomes)...

Description
Summary:Resistance to the soil-borne pathogen Cephalosporium gramineum was evaluated in Agropyron elongatum, A. intermedium, A. intermedium var. trichophorum , an Agrotriticum, and eight species of Triticum . Only A. elongatum and A. intermedium showed high levels of resistant. Agrotriticum (56 chromosomes) was resistance too. High resistance to C. gramineum is available, but its utilization will probably require the use of chromosome substitution techniques to transfer the resistance into an agronomically useful wheat.
