Popis: Commercial cultivars, breeding material, and near-isogenic Sr gene lines of spring common wheat were tested for resistance to the Siberian population of stem rust races in an experimental field of the Omsk Agrarian University and to virulent race Ug99 at the Institute of Plant Pathology in Kenya (Africa). Resistant material was selected for breeding in West Siberia. The genetic value of populations developed by a shuttle breeding program among scientific institutions of Kazakhstan, West Siberia, and the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center (CIMMYT), Mexico, is proven.
