Sentence examples for control of rust from inspiring English sources

This is consistent with a recent study analysing the genetic control of rust in sorghum [ 3] who found rust severity in field grown sorghum was negatively correlated with plant height and maturity.

This study used natural field infection data from multiple populations grown in multiple environments using a combination of conventional linkage mapping and association mapping to investigate the genetic control of rust resistance and the potential for multi-trait effect QTL.

Its role on inhibiting germination of fungal spores makes it an eligible candidate gene for the control of Asian rust.

As such, better understanding of the genetic control of leaf rust resistance would provide sorghum breeders with critical knowledge to develop new resistant varieties.

Growing resistant cultivars is considered to be the most economically effective and environmentally safe measure for control of stripe rust [ 6, 7].

Although resistant cultivars have played a major role in the control of stem rust, the emergence of a new highly virulent race, TTKSK (Ug99), originating in Uganda in 1999, jeopardizes world wheat production (Singh et al. 2006, 2011).

Furthermore, the ability of Pst to form new races that can attack previously resistant cultivars, along with the capacity of fungal spores to travel long distances, can make control of stripe rust difficult.

This difference in the genetic control of leaf rust resistance across cereals could be partly due to the fact that sorghum is primarily a perennial species in comparison to the strongly annual life-history of the other major cereals, where the need for more stable resistance due to increased plant longevity could favour selection for multiple resistance genes of small effect.

Silencing of three genes resulted in suppression of all three rust diseases indicating that it may be possible to engineer durable resistance to multiple rust pathogens with a single gene in transgenic wheat plants for sustainable control of cereal rusts.

The potential for generating durable resistance to multiple rusts in a single transgene construct should warrant further research in HIGS approaches for sustainable control of cereal rusts.

In this work, we identify genome regions that control different components of rust resistance in a recombinant inbred line population developed from a cross between two Arachis species, the susceptible most probable B genome ancestor of cultivated peanut, Arachis ipaënsis, and an accession of its closest relative, Arachis magna, which is resistant to rust.
