Climate change across the globe has an impact on the occurrence, prevalence, and severity
of plant diseases. About 30% of yield losses in major crops are due to plant diseases; …

Abstract Germander (Teucrium stocksianum Boiss.) is distinguished by a small geographical
range in the heights of southern Iran including Hormozgan, and Sistan & Baluchestan. The …

Background Wheat rusts are important biotic stresses, development of rust resistant cultivars
through molecular approaches is both economical and sustainable. Extensive phenoty** …

Background Wheat stripe rust (caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. Tritici), is a major disease
that causes huge yield damage. New pathogen races appeared in the last few years and …

Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) adversely affects wheat quality and yield, and grain color (GC)
is associated with PHS resistance. However, the genetic relationship between GC and PHS …

Micronutrients especially iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) are essential for human health, whose
deficiency is a global concern. The direct intake of Fe and Zn can be adapted via, enhancing …

Resistance in modern wheat cultivars for stripe rust is not long lasting due to the narrow
genetic base and periodical evolution of new pathogenic races. Though nearly 83 Yr genes …

Wheat yellow rust (YR) caused by Puccinia striiformis is lethal for the leaf photosynthetic
process, which substantially affects yield components and ultimately causes drastic yield …

Understanding the genetic basis of quality-related traits contributes to the improvement of
grain protein concentration (GPC), grain starch concentration (GSC), and wet gluten …

The alpine forage grass species Elymus nutans Griseb. is widely distributed in the Qinghai–
