Fatih OZDEMIRBahri Dagdas IARI-Konya-TURKEY
Survey
• Agricultural Research Institutes
• Extention services have regular survey program in province and districts (800 point in Turkey)
• SMS system used by extention services in Central Anatolia
Main Control Strategies
• Monitoring and pathogenic variation
• Breeding Activities
• Fungicide application
• International Collaborations and Rust Network
Yellow Rust Stem RustLeaf Rust
Monitoring of Pathogenic Variation• Trap nurseries• Resistance genes• Common cultivar• Some cultivars which have important genes
• Pathotype/race analyses under controlled greenhouse condition on differantial sets
• Surveillance and Monitoring of the pathogenic variability
• Screening of the wheat and barley germplasm under natural and artificial condition in the multilocation.
• Registered varieties
• Advance lines
• Coordination of the institute and materyal changing between institutes
• To enhance personel capacity and knowledge, organised training activities as theoretical and practical.
• Incorporation of moleculer markers (Lr34, Sr24 etc.) related resistance genes to the breeding program.
Breeding Program
Winter Wheat
National
Disease
Program
Spring Wheat
Breeding program conducted by agricultural research institutes in their own regions,
National Program facilitates collaboration between institutes
International Winter Wheat Improvement program (IWWIP), Turkey-CIMMYT-ICARDA collaboration

Fungicide application
• Effective fungicides are available
• The cost of the fungicide application cheaper than before
• Farmers apply fungicide with herbicides and other foliar applications like fertilizers.

International Collaborations
• IWWIP• Turkey-ICARDA (regional wheat rust center-İzmir)• CIMMYT• BGRI• FAO

Challenges• Registration system– Yield is first priority. Quality is second priority. – Susceptible cultivars can be registered if yield is
higher than standart cultivars• Breeding program– Several disease (not only yellow rust but also
other disease • Fungicide application– Escape application or early application– Small scale farmers– Low yield potentials
