Research Progress on the Application of Biotechnology in Wheat Breeding against Stripe Rust
Stripe rust is the most important diseases in wheat production,breeding the new wheat varieties which have resistant characteristics to stripe rust is an essential method to improve yield and safeguard food security.The rapid development of biotechnology has effectively promoted the mining and utilization of genes related to important wheat traits.In this paper,the current situation and application of cell engineering,chromosome engineering,molecular markers,gene editing,genome-wide association analysis and other technologies to improve wheat rust resistance related traits were described,and the issues to be solved in wheat stripe rust resistance breeding were analyzed,in order to provide support for the application and development of biotechnology in wheat rust resistance breeding in Gansu Province.
