Genetic Gain from Phenotypic and Genomic Selection for Quantitative Resistance to Stem Rust of Wheat

Stem rust of wheat ( L.) caused by f. sp. Eriks. and E. Henn. is a globally important disease that can cause severe yield loss. Breeding for quantitative stem rust resistance (QSRR) is important for developing cultivars with durable resistance. Genomic selection (GS) could increase rates of geneti...
