Abstract: | <jats:sec><jats:label /><jats:p><jats:italic>With 6 figures and 4 tables</jats:italic></jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Stripe or yellow rust (YR) is a significant problem in wheat crops worldwide. The deployment of adult‐plant resistance (APR) genes in wheat cultivars is considered a sustainable management strategy, as these genes confer partial resistance that is usually non‐race specific. Screening for APR typically involves assessment of adult plants in the field, where expression may be influenced by environmental factors. We report a high‐throughput screening method for YR APR that can be used to assess fixed lines or segregating populations grown under controlled environmental conditions (CEC). Inoculation of 3‐week‐old wheat plants from lines with known APR responses to YR, when grown under constant light and temperature, provided disease responses typical of adult plants. Two F<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> populations (‘H45’ × ‘ST93’ and ‘Wyalkatchem’ × ‘ST93’) segregating for APR were assessed under both CEC and field conditions. These populations showed similar variation in disease response and lines assessed in both environments attained similar rankings. Phenotypic screening using CEC and continuous light provides an opportunity to accelerate the development of new wheat cultivars with durable resistance.</jats:p></jats:sec> |
