Abstract

Advanced bread wheat lines (Triticum aestivum), durum
wheat (~. durum), triticale (X Triticosecale), hybridizations
between ~- aestivum with Agropyron spp. and hexaploid wheat X
triticale were evaluated for resistance to Tilletia ~,
the causal agent of partial bunt. Plants were artificially
inoculated at the boot stage with a sporidia! suspension of
10, 000/ml at three planting dates at CIANO, Cd. Obregon,
Sonora, during 1988-89. The percentages of lines with
infection levels below 5% were 57.8 for bread wheat, 82.6 for
durum wheat, 83.6 for triticale, 60 for lines derived from
interspecific crosses, and 75 for advanced lines produced by
CIMMYT's basic germplasm development section. The mean
percent infection of the susceptible check was 75 . 4%.
