Abstract
An experiment was conducted to determine the relationships between gliadin composition and resistance to leaf ( Puccinia recondita ) and stem rust ( P. graminis f.sp. tritici ) diseases in tolerant Aegilops umbellulata cv. Acc. 165, susceptible Triticum durum cv. Kunduru 1149 and their resistant backcross derivative. Acc. 165 has a high level of resistance to leaf and stem rust in adult and seedling stages. Kunduru 1149 was very susceptible to each rust in both stages. The hybrid F SUB 1 , which was more similar morphologically to A. umbellulata than T. durum , exhibited resistance to both leaf and stem rusts in adult and seedling stages. The derivatives BC SUB 3 and BC SUB 3 F SUB 2 , which were similar to T. durum , were resistant to both rust diseases only during the seedling stage. Comparison of the gliadin band patterns of the resistant derivative (BC SUB 3 F SUB 2 ) with their parents showed the presence of similar 6 bands in both A. umbellulata and BC SUB 3 F SUB 2 (Kunduru 1149 did not include these bands) which suggests that resistant derivatives carrying the leaf and stem rust resistance genes have probably originated from A. umbellulata . On the other hand, 5 bands were completely different from those in the parents. Seven gliadin bands were transmitted from the mother, while 6 gliadin bands were transmitted from the father
