Euphytica Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

In a comparative study of reaction patterns and by analysis of segregation ratios in cross progenies, Triticum dicoccoides Koern. sel. G-25 was shown to possess a yet unknown gene for resistance to yellow rust. It is suggested to assign provisionally the symbol Yr15 to this gene.
