Abstract
In order to evaluate wheat response to yellow rust, 25 advanced, promi sing and commercial bread wheat cultivars were tested as seedlings in greenhouse conditions in Karaj, Iran, and as adult plants in field con ditions at four locations. Five pathotypes of yellow rust, 14E176A(+), 134E142A+, 6E210A+, 4E128A- and 64E146A+ prevailing in field test loc ations, were used in the seedling tests. The results showed that some of the cultivars have seedling or overall resistance to the pathotypes and some have adult plant resistance. Cultivars M-70-4 and MV17 were resistant to all pathotypes as seedlings and showed good adult plant r esistance.
