Abstrakt: The article emphasizes the need for expanding the differential sets used in race typing experiments for plant pathologists to provide valuable information to plant breeders. Specifically focusing on stripe rust, a fungal disease that affects wheat crops, the article explains how the pathogen evolves and gains virulence over time, necessitating the continuous introgression of resistance from different sources. The article also highlights the importance of including relevant differential genotypes in race typing experiments to support the development of resistant cultivars. Additionally, the document provides a list of wheat cultivars and their corresponding resistance genes to stripe rust, along with discussing the significance of standardizing race typing conditions for more accurate and comparable results in studying the population dynamics of the stripe rust pathogen in North America.
