Article Synopsis
- - Triticum militinae, a wild relative of wheat, is known for its disease resistance, with recent studies evaluating 21 developed lines for resistance against leaf and stripe rust diseases at both seedling and adult plant stages.
- - Eight of the TMD lines showed strong seedling resistance to both diseases, while others displayed varying degrees of resistance and susceptibility, indicating a complex genetic background.
- - Notably, all TMD lines were cytologically stable, and the research suggests that many of them likely carry unknown resistance genes against stripe rust, making them valuable for future genetic studies in wheat resistance.
A marker-assisted backcrossing program initiated to transfer leaf rust resistance gene from cv. Trinakria to hexaploid wheat variety HD2932 cotransferred a stripe rust resistance gene, , along with The cross of hexaploid recurrent parent HD2932 with tetraploid donor parent Trinakria produced pentaploid F plants. Fs were backcrossed with recurrent parent HD2932 to produce BCF generation.

After its release in 2011, HD2967 became susceptible to stripe rust and moderately susceptible to leaf rust. The leaf rust resistance gene was transferred into HD2967 from the durum wheat genotype Trinakria.
