HISTORY
Gadd (1777) Yellow Rust mentioned for the first time
Schimdt (1827) Described the pathogen infecting barley glumes as
Uredoglumarum
Westend (1854) Named the pathogen as Puccinia striiaeformis (with
reference from rye).
Fuckel (1860) Named it as Puccinia staminis
Eriksson &
Henning (1894)
Yellow rust as Puccinia glumarum.
The term was reviewed again in 1953 and was changed to specials of Puccinia
striiformis
Pathogen Characters
Yellow Rust is considered to be an obligate parasite.
The fungus produces bright yellow to orange uredospores 20 to 30 µm in
diameter. These spores have thick and echinulated walls and are contained
in sori or pustules on the plant .
Uredospore production usually is followed by teliospore production late in
the growing season.
Earlier, no alternate hosts were known. But now it has been found that alternate
hosts are barberry (Berberis chinensis, B. koreana, B. holstii, B. vulgaris, B.
shensiana, B. potaninii, B. dolichobotrys etc.)

GENETICS OF RUST RESISTANCE IN WHEAT
• Biffen (1905) first demonstrated that resistance to stripe rust in
wheat follows Mendel’s laws, the genetics of resistance to stripe
rust has been studied for a century.
• Studies conducted worldwide on the genetics of rust resistance
in wheat
• Many insights gained into the structure and functional aspects
of the genetic architecture of rust resistance in wheat
• A total of 60 Sr, 79 Lr and 82 Yr genes designated
• Many temporarily designated and undesignated resistance genes
and QTLs have been indicated in many studies

DURABLE RESISTANCE
Resistance which has remained effective in a cultivar during
its widespread cultivation for a long sequence of
generations or period of time in an environment favorable
to a disease or pest (Johnson 1988).
A combination of several genes may confer durability of
resistance on the premise that components such as
increased latent period, smaller pustule size, reduced
number of uredia per unit area etc. may contribute towards
slow development of rust
Linkage Between Rust Resistance Genes
A number of rust resistance genes show linkage, which offers an
added advantage towards multiple rust resistance breeding in
wheat.
The linked genes for rust resistance in wheat:
Sr2/Lr27/Yr30 Sr15/Lr20 Sr23/Lr16
Sr24/Lr24/Yr71 Sr25/Lr19 Sr31/Lr26/Yr9
Sr38/Lr37/Yr17 Sr39/Lr35 Lr57/Yr40
Lr62/Yr42 Lr76/Yr70 Lr25/Lr18
Yr51/Yr60
Tomar et al. 2014
SLOW RUST RESISTANCE
A type of resistance where disease progresses at
retarded rate, resulting in intermediate to low disease
levels against all races of pathogen (Caldwell 1968).
The purpose of slow rusting or partial resistant is to
achieve durable resistant and provide a sustainable
approach of disease control
Numbers of slow rusting gene have been identified so far.
However, the known slow rusting genes which present in
number of CIMMYT release germplasm line or cultivars
are Lr34 and Lr46 present in combination with other minor
gene (Bai et al., 1999).
Expression Of Resistance
Gene interactions:
• Epistasis is generally observes when 2 or more resistant genes are
present together i.e. the gene conditioning the lowest infection type or
highest level of resistance is expressed
• Additive effects:
 Additive interactions for resistance to leaf and stripe rust among Lr46,
Yr29 and 3-4 QTL’s in RIL’s derived from Avocet × Kundan
 Yr 81 interacted with Yr 18 towards enhanced stripe rust resistance
 Yr 82 interacted with Yr 29 to produce lower adult plant response to
stripe rust
Expression Of Resistance
• Complementary effects
The Yr17 resistance in Avocet R conditioned by two
complementary genes, Yr 73 on 3DL and Yr 74 on 5BL
• Suppressor effects
A Yr 18 suppressor was reported in four Chinese Landraces
Pleiotropic effect of Resistant genes
• Changes in two critical amino acids in the resistant allele of Yr46/Lr67
result in encoding a protein that has lost hexose transport function and
could therefore disturb the balance of sugars between the extracellular
and intracellular spaces of the leaf. This may reduce the availability of
nutrients inside the host cell, hence the effectiveness of this gene
against multiple biotrophic fungi. Alternatively, altering apoplastic
sugar concentration may induce activities of defense responses
• The gene Lr34/Yr18 has been shown to encode an ATP binding
Cassette (ABC) transporter. However, the basis of resistance and the
substances of this ABC transporter are yet unknown.
PAPR Genes
• Lr 34/ Yr 18/ Sr57/Pm38/Sb1/Bdv1/Ltn1 (7DS)
• Lr 46/ Yr 29/ Sr 58/Pm 39/ Ltn 2 (1BL)
• Lr 67/ Yr 46/ Sr 55/ Pm 46/ Ltn 3 (4 DL)
Effectiveness of PAPR Genes
• Although PAPR genes are widely effective, the
level of resistance imparted by them on their
own under heavy disease pressure is not
adequate and need to be complemented by
other resistance genes
• Their expression is significantly influenced by
the environmental conditions.

Effective ways to fight rusts in India
• Survey and surveillance in mediterranean
areas on our own or with international
collaboration
• Understanding of evolution of biotypes in
races
• Durable resistance genes combating threat of
new races
Methods of Controlling the Rust Diseases
Roelfs et al. 1992
Gene Pyramiding
Gene pyramiding defined as the method aimed
at assembling multiple desirable genes from
multiple parents into a single genotype. The end
product of a gene pyramiding program is a
genotype with all of the target genes.
Watson and Singh (1953) first introduced the concept called gene pyramiding

GENETIC STOCKS WITH PYRAMIDED RUST RESISTANCE
Bhardwaj et al. 2019
GENE DEPLOYMENT
The development and deployment of resistant wheat varieties has proven to be the
most economic, effective and efficient means of managing rust diseases.
Gene deployment is a promising and effective strategy to curtail the rust epidemics.
Stripe rust resistance gene Yr9 provided resistance for a very long period in India but
now has become ineffective due to evolution of new virulences.
Deployment of genes such as Yr2, Yr 18 , Yr 29 and Yr46, which are individually as
well as collectively effective against the prevailing races would be an appropriate
strategy to check the losses due to stripe rust.
A combination of all stage (seedling) resistance, slow rusting resistance, and APR of
both the race specific and non-race specific types is deployed for the Agronomy

Tomar et al. 2014
Multilines
• Jensen(1952) gave the concept of mutilines
• Borlaug (1953) used an equivalent term ‘composite’ and
proposed as a new approach for resistance to stem rust

CHEMICAL CONTROL
If the yellow rust is noticed in the wheat crop, it is advised to spray the crop with
Propiconazole (Tilt) 25 EC @ 0.1 % (1 ml / litre) using power sprayer or tractor
mounted boom sprayers. 0.5 litre per hectare of the fungicide shall be sufficient to
effectively cover the wheat crop.
Source: Directorate of Wheat
Research, Karnal
Use of chemicals for rust control dates back to year 1900. Sulphur had been a widely
recommended chemical
Good control of wheat rusts can be achieved with commercially available fungicides
and proper application timing.
Post-infection application of nickel salts were found effective in rust control in 1958
and in 1963 commercial control of Puccinia striiformis with nickel fungicides was
reported
CASE STUDIES
• Materials and Methods :
• Results :
Randhawa et al. 2019
• Materials and Methods :
In this study, 70 publically available
molecular markers were used to identify
the distribution of 35 Yr genes in 68
wheat genotypes. Out of 35 Yr genes, 25
genes amplified the loci associated with
Yr genes. Of the
35, 18 were all-stage resistance ASR (All-
stage resistance) genes and 7 (Yr16,
Yr18, Yr29, Yr30, Yr36, Yr46 & Yr59)
were APR (Adult-plant resistance) genes
.
• Results :
At the adult-plant stage, disease data on
infection types and severity was recorded.
Fifty-three genotypes were found resistant
(accounting for 77.94% of total genotypes,
3 genotypes (4.4%) showed trace
resistance, 7 genotypes (10.3%) were
moderately susceptible (ITs 3) and 5
genotypes (7.35%) including infector (WH
711 and PBW 343) were susceptible.
Overall 60 genotypes expressed yellow rust
resistance under field conditions against
predominant yellow rust pathotypes i.e.
46S119, 110S119, 110S84
&78S84.
Marker assisted detection of 35 Yr genes
in wheat genotypes was carried out using
70 Yr gene linked markers. The results
indicated the effectiveness of these
markers for specific Yr gene which also
identified the resistant lines containing
multiple Yr genes.

CONCLUSION
The ever changing nature of wheat leaf, stripe and stem rusts poses a serious threat to
future wheat production.
As an emergent tool for managing wheat rusts in India, fungicides belonging to
triazole (Propiconazole, Tebuconazole, Triadimefon), are kept ready for effectively
controlling wheat rusts at the rate of 0.1 percent.
However, resistant cultivars have remained popular among the farmers as they are
cost effective and environmentally neutral in terms of impact.
The emergence of new races of rusts require continued efforts to deploy new
resistance genes.
CONCLUSION
This collective effort in developing resistant cultivars and understanding disease
epidemiology has gradually reduced the magnitude and frequency of epidemics.
The claim is well verified with the fact that India has had no wheat rust epidemic for
the last 47 years even when many countries in the world have had rust outbreaks.
Rapid advances in molecular marker technologies are revolutionizing the ways in
which resistance can be manipulated in breeding programmes.
A number of rust resistant genes are still effective in different regions of the world.
Such genes need to be utilized in wheat crop improvement in planned and judicious
manner

  • 8. HISTORY Gadd (1777) Yellow Rust mentioned for the first time Schimdt (1827) Described the pathogen infecting barley glumes as Uredoglumarum Westend (1854) Named the pathogen as Puccinia striiaeformis (with reference from rye). Fuckel (1860) Named it as Puccinia staminis Eriksson & Henning (1894) Yellow rust as Puccinia glumarum. The term was reviewed again in 1953 and was changed to specials of Puccinia striiformis
  • 9. Pathogen Characters Yellow Rust is considered to be an obligate parasite. The fungus produces bright yellow to orange uredospores 20 to 30 µm in diameter. These spores have thick and echinulated walls and are contained in sori or pustules on the plant . Uredospore production usually is followed by teliospore production late in the growing season. Earlier, no alternate hosts were known. But now it has been found that alternate hosts are barberry (Berberis chinensis, B. koreana, B. holstii, B. vulgaris, B. shensiana, B. potaninii, B. dolichobotrys etc.)

  • 15. GENETICS OF RUST RESISTANCE IN WHEAT • Biffen (1905) first demonstrated that resistance to stripe rust in wheat follows Mendel’s laws, the genetics of resistance to stripe rust has been studied for a century. • Studies conducted worldwide on the genetics of rust resistance in wheat • Many insights gained into the structure and functional aspects of the genetic architecture of rust resistance in wheat • A total of 60 Sr, 79 Lr and 82 Yr genes designated • Many temporarily designated and undesignated resistance genes and QTLs have been indicated in many studies
  • 16. TYPES OF RESISTANCE Sr.NO WAYS OF SEPERATION RESISTANT TYPE (I) RESISTANT TYPE (II) 1. Growth Stage All-stage resistance (ASR) Adult Plant Resistance (APR) 2.

Molecular basis NBS-LRR type resistance Non NBS-LRR type 10. Durability Non durable Durable 11. Race-specificity, growth stage and temperature sensitivity Race-specific all-stage resistance Non-race specific high- temperature adult-plant (HTAP) resistance
  • 17. DURABLE RESISTANCE Resistance which has remained effective in a cultivar during its widespread cultivation for a long sequence of generations or period of time in an environment favorable to a disease or pest (Johnson 1988). A combination of several genes may confer durability of resistance on the premise that components such as increased latent period, smaller pustule size, reduced number of uredia per unit area etc. may contribute towards slow development of rust
  • 18. Linkage Between Rust Resistance Genes A number of rust resistance genes show linkage, which offers an added advantage towards multiple rust resistance breeding in wheat. The linked genes for rust resistance in wheat: Sr2/Lr27/Yr30 Sr15/Lr20 Sr23/Lr16 Sr24/Lr24/Yr71 Sr25/Lr19 Sr31/Lr26/Yr9 Sr38/Lr37/Yr17 Sr39/Lr35 Lr57/Yr40 Lr62/Yr42 Lr76/Yr70 Lr25/Lr18 Yr51/Yr60 Tomar et al. 2014
  • 19.
  • 20. SLOW RUST RESISTANCE A type of resistance where disease progresses at retarded rate, resulting in intermediate to low disease levels against all races of pathogen (Caldwell 1968). The purpose of slow rusting or partial resistant is to achieve durable resistant and provide a sustainable approach of disease control Numbers of slow rusting gene have been identified so far. However, the known slow rusting genes which present in number of CIMMYT release germplasm line or cultivars are Lr34 and Lr46 present in combination with other minor gene (Bai et al., 1999).
  • 21. Expression Of Resistance Gene interactions: • Epistasis is generally observes when 2 or more resistant genes are present together i.e. the gene conditioning the lowest infection type or highest level of resistance is expressed • Additive effects:  Additive interactions for resistance to leaf and stripe rust among Lr46, Yr29 and 3-4 QTL’s in RIL’s derived from Avocet × Kundan  Yr 81 interacted with Yr 18 towards enhanced stripe rust resistance  Yr 82 interacted with Yr 29 to produce lower adult plant response to stripe rust
  • 22. Expression Of Resistance • Complementary effects The Yr17 resistance in Avocet R conditioned by two complementary genes, Yr 73 on 3DL and Yr 74 on 5BL • Suppressor effects A Yr 18 suppressor was reported in four Chinese Landraces
  • 23. Pleiotropic effect of Resistant genes • Changes in two critical amino acids in the resistant allele of Yr46/Lr67 result in encoding a protein that has lost hexose transport function and could therefore disturb the balance of sugars between the extracellular and intracellular spaces of the leaf. This may reduce the availability of nutrients inside the host cell, hence the effectiveness of this gene against multiple biotrophic fungi. Alternatively, altering apoplastic sugar concentration may induce activities of defense responses • The gene Lr34/Yr18 has been shown to encode an ATP binding Cassette (ABC) transporter. However, the basis of resistance and the substances of this ABC transporter are yet unknown.
  • 24. PAPR Genes • Lr 34/ Yr 18/ Sr57/Pm38/Sb1/Bdv1/Ltn1 (7DS) • Lr 46/ Yr 29/ Sr 58/Pm 39/ Ltn 2 (1BL) • Lr 67/ Yr 46/ Sr 55/ Pm 46/ Ltn 3 (4 DL)
  • 25. Effectiveness of PAPR Genes • Although PAPR genes are widely effective, the level of resistance imparted by them on their own under heavy disease pressure is not adequate and need to be complemented by other resistance genes • Their expression is significantly influenced by the environmental conditions.

  • 36. GENE DEPLOYMENT The development and deployment of resistant wheat varieties has proven to be the most economic, effective and efficient means of managing rust diseases. Gene deployment is a promising and effective strategy to curtail the rust epidemics. Stripe rust resistance gene Yr9 provided resistance for a very long period in India but now has become ineffective due to evolution of new virulences. Deployment of genes such as Yr2, Yr 18 , Yr 29 and Yr46, which are individually as well as collectively effective against the prevailing races would be an appropriate strategy to check the losses due to stripe rust. A combination of all stage (seedling) resistance, slow rusting resistance, and APR of both the race specific and non-race specific types is deployed for the Agronomy 2019, 9, 892 9 of 14 strategic management of wheat rusts Tomar et al. 2014

  • 38. CHEMICAL CONTROL If the yellow rust is noticed in the wheat crop, it is advised to spray the crop with Propiconazole (Tilt) 25 EC @ 0.1 % (1 ml / litre) using power sprayer or tractor mounted boom sprayers. 0.5 litre per hectare of the fungicide shall be sufficient to effectively cover the wheat crop. Source: Directorate of Wheat Research, Karnal Use of chemicals for rust control dates back to year 1900. Sulphur had been a widely recommended chemical Good control of wheat rusts can be achieved with commercially available fungicides and proper application timing. Post-infection application of nickel salts were found effective in rust control in 1958 and in 1963 commercial control of Puccinia striiformis with nickel fungicides was reported

  • 43. • Materials and Methods : In this study, 70 publically available molecular markers were used to identify the distribution of 35 Yr genes in 68 wheat genotypes. Out of 35 Yr genes, 25 genes amplified the loci associated with Yr genes. Of the 35, 18 were all-stage resistance ASR (All- stage resistance) genes and 7 (Yr16, Yr18, Yr29, Yr30, Yr36, Yr46 & Yr59) were APR (Adult-plant resistance) genes . • Results : At the adult-plant stage, disease data on infection types and severity was recorded. Fifty-three genotypes were found resistant (accounting for 77.94% of total genotypes, 3 genotypes (4.4%) showed trace resistance, 7 genotypes (10.3%) were moderately susceptible (ITs 3) and 5 genotypes (7.35%) including infector (WH 711 and PBW 343) were susceptible. Overall 60 genotypes expressed yellow rust resistance under field conditions against predominant yellow rust pathotypes i.e. 46S119, 110S119, 110S84 &78S84. Marker assisted detection of 35 Yr genes in wheat genotypes was carried out using 70 Yr gene linked markers. The results indicated the effectiveness of these markers for specific Yr gene which also identified the resistant lines containing multiple Yr genes. Rani et al. 2019

  • 45. CONCLUSION The ever changing nature of wheat leaf, stripe and stem rusts poses a serious threat to future wheat production. As an emergent tool for managing wheat rusts in India, fungicides belonging to triazole (Propiconazole, Tebuconazole, Triadimefon), are kept ready for effectively controlling wheat rusts at the rate of 0.1 percent. However, resistant cultivars have remained popular among the farmers as they are cost effective and environmentally neutral in terms of impact. The emergence of new races of rusts require continued efforts to deploy new resistance genes.
  • 46. CONCLUSION This collective effort in developing resistant cultivars and understanding disease epidemiology has gradually reduced the magnitude and frequency of epidemics. The claim is well verified with the fact that India has had no wheat rust epidemic for the last 47 years even when many countries in the world have had rust outbreaks. Rapid advances in molecular marker technologies are revolutionizing the ways in which resistance can be manipulated in breeding programmes. A number of rust resistant genes are still effective in different regions of the world. Such genes need to be utilized in wheat crop improvement in planned and judicious manner
