Twenty-three wheat genotypes were evaluated for stripe and leaf rusts, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici and Puccinia triticina f. sp. tritici, respectively, at seedling and adult stages under greenhouses and field conditions during the 2...
The main efforts in common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) breeding focus on yield, grain quality, and resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses. One of the major threats affecting global wheat cultivation and causing significant crop production losses...
Uromyces viciae-fabae Pers. de-Bary is an important fungal pathogen causing rust in peas (Pisum sativum L.). It is reported in mild to severe forms from different parts of the world where the pea is grown. Host specificity has been indicated in this...
Leaf rust caused by Puccinia triticina (Pt) is one of the most dangerous diseases causing significant losses in common wheat crops. In adult plants resistant to rust, a horizontal adult plant resistance (APR) type is observed, which protects the plan...
Rust, caused by the fungus Uromyces pisi, is the most harmful disease of peas in temperate regions. It is necessary to search for sources of resistance with different defense mechanisms in the pea gene pool. A set of 38 Pisum sativum accessions of va...
Adult plant resistance (APR) is widely used in wheat breeding, but its behaviour across genetic backgrounds remains poorly understood. In this study, we analysed the expression of three APR loci (Lr34, Lr46, Lr67) following their introgression into e...
Faba bean rust is one of the major threats to the cultivation of faba beans worldwide. Three genes for rust resistance (Uvf-1, Uvf-2 and Uvf-3) and fifteen marker-trait associations have been identified so far. This study examines the genetic basis o...
Wheat is a major nutritional cereal crop that has economic and strategic value worldwide. The sustainability of this extraordinary crop is facing critical challenges globally, particularly leaf rust disease, which causes endless problems for wheat fa...
In this study, Q370qENH high-strength weathering bridge steel was used as the base material. The corrosion experiment in a marine atmosphere was simulated by the salt spray test, and the outdoor atmospheric exposure corrosion experiment and electroch...
The corrosion behaviors in chloride environment of two commercial low-alloy steel bars were studied. Through cyclic wetting tests, accelerated corrosion experiments ranging from 1 to 576 h were conducted on low-alloy bars and original bars. Technique...
Adult plant resistance in wheat is an achievement of the breeding objective because of its durability in comparison with race-specific resistance. Partial resistance to wheat stripe rust disease was evaluated under greenhouse and field conditions dur...
Grouting materials used in water-rich and chloride-exposed environments require adequate workability, mechanical performance, and durability. To optimize the formulation, a series of orthogonal tests was conducted to assess how fly ash (10–30%)...
Dalian Island is located in the sea area near Pingtan County, Fujian, Southeast China. The sea area used to be the junction of the eastern and western ship routes on the Maritime Silk Road, and is also an important region for underwater archaeology i...
EH36 offshore platform steel, La (0.0031%) steel, Ce (0.0027%) steel, and Pr (0.0001%) steel were selected as the research objects. The corrosion of four groups of steel was simulated by immersion experiments. In the presence of Cl− the effect...
