Abstract
The experiment entitled, ―Studies on host-pathogen interaction and epidemiology of stripe rust of
bread wheat incited by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici West‖ was conducted at CCS Haryana
Agricultural University (CCS HAU), Hisar and ICAR-Indian Institute of Wheat and Barley Research,
Karnal and its Regional Station, Flowerdale, Shimla., during Rabi season of 2022-23. In present
investigation, eleven genotypes and four varieties namely, SABWGPYT-2005, SABWGPYT-3017,
SABWGPYT-1015, SABWGPYT-2041, SABWGPYT-1009, SABWGPYT-1004, SABWGPYT-1026,
SABWGPYT-1039, SABWGPYT-2044, SABWGPYT-2040, SABWGPYT-1010, WH1270,
WHD948, WH896 and WH1124 showed higher degree of slow rusting/adult plant resistance. There
were 31 genotypes and 1 variety which showed promising slow rusting/adult plant resistance to stripe
rust at field conditions of Karnal and Hisar. Four wheat genotypes and one variety namely,
SABWGPYT-2046, SABWGPYT-1009, SABWGPYT-1004, SABWGPYT-2016 and WH896 were
found very resistant to pathotypes (46S119, 110S119, 110S84 and 47S103). A total of one hundred ten
wheat germplasm were screened for 44 Yr genes with 54 specific linked Primer sets. Among 44 Yr
gens, 32 genes were amplified the loci associated with Yr genes. Genes, Yr32 (0.9%), Yr18 (1.81%),
Yr65 (4.54%), Yr36 (5.45%), Yr44 and Yr61 (6.36%) and Yr57 (10%) showed low frequency in wheat
germplasm, while Yr5 and Yr35 (95.45%), Yr64 (92.72%), Yr46 (91.91%), Yr7 (89.09%), Yr67
(88.18%), Yr51 (86.36%) and Yr62 (85.45%) were most frequent in wheat germplasm. Temperature
greatly influenced the stripe rust urediospores germination. The maximum per cent spore germination
was 62.44, 56.72 recorded in case of pathotype 46S119 and 110S119 respectively at 12°C and it was
56.28 per cent for pathotype 110S84 at 15°C. Weather parameters significantly influence the stripe rust
development and rust progress was greatly affected due to temperature, relative humidity and rainfall.
In month of February maximum development of stripe rust was observed at Karnal and Hisar. The
positive correlation of stripe rust severity was observed with temperature (maximum and minimum),
relative humidity (evening) and total rainfall. Regression analysis indicates the variability in stripe rust
severity up to 87 percent with average temperature at Karnal and 85 percent at Hisar, respectively.
