This detailed volume collects techniques for increasing our understanding of wheat rust pathogens, the host plant, and the interactions between the two. Beginning with routine and advanced tools used for pathogen surveillance, characterization, and field assessment of germplasm for resistance, the book continues with sections on genetic analysis and breeding for rust resistance, as well as rust management through fungicidal approaches. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

Authoritative and practical, Wheat Rusts and Resistance Breeding: Methods and Protocols serves as an ideal guide for established researchers looking to familiarize themselves with new innovations and for new researchers working to strengthen their understanding of rust pathogens.
