Abstract
Powdery mildew (Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici) is one of the diseases of wheat and causes economic loss in wheat production. Powdery mildew can be managed through an array of methodologies; however genetic/host resistance is the most economical, reliable, efficient, sustainable, and environment-friendly approach. Genetic resistance is imparted either through race-specific/qualitative or non-race-specific/quantitative or combination of both in the host. Sources of powdery mildew resistance include cultivated and wild species comprising of primary, secondary, and tertiary gene pool. Identified resistance is transferred to elite genetic background with minimum linkage drag using breeding techniques involving from backcrossing, marker-assisted selection, gene pyramiding to the advanced CRISPER, gene cassettes, etc. This chapter discusses on the abovementioned subjects/topics along with breeding challenges and future prospects.
