Cephalosporium stripe of wheat : seedling-based resistance screening and pathogenic variability

Creator:

Cowger, Christina

Abstract:

Cephalosporium stripe of wheat (Triticum aestivum), caused by the soilborne fungus Cephalosporium gramineum, results in significant yield reductions in dryland winter wheat crops of the U.S. Pacific Northwest. The development of resistant cultivars offers the best hope for disease control. Breeding for resistance is hampered by the long trial times...
