Innovative gene stacks enhance wheat rust resistance – Phys.org
John Innes Centre researchers have helped in the development of pioneering gene stacking techniques to combat the growing threat of wheat rust.
John Innes Centre researchers have helped in the development of pioneering gene stacking techniques to combat the growing threat of wheat rust.
Researchers at CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency, led the international effort to develop wheats with a stronger and potentially more durable level of resistance against rust diseases by “stacking” resistance genes together.
This represents a major advance over conventional wheat breeding protocols where individual resistance genes are added one…
