This type of resistance involves race-nonspecific mechanisms and can be identified at adult-plant stages. Until now, seven genes (Lr34/Yr18, Lr46/Yr29, Lr67/Yr46, Lr68, Lr75, Lr77 and Lr78) conferring durable types of resistance against multiple fungal pathogens have been identified in the wheat gene pool. In this study we showed a multiplex Polymerase Chain Reaction (multiplex PCR) assay, which was developed for detection of slow rusting resistance genes Lr34, Lr46, Lr68, using molecular markers: csLV34, Xwmc44 and csGS, respectively. Identification of molecular markers was performed on 40 selected wheat genotypes which are the sources of slow rusting genes according to literature reports. Multiplex PCR is an important tool to reduce the time and cost of analysis. This multiplex PCR protocol can be applicable for genotyping processes and marker assisted resistance breeding of wheat.}, type={Article}, title={Multiplex PCR assay for simultaneous identification of slow rust resistance genes Lr34, Lr46 and Lr68 in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)}, URL={http://czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/117927/PDF/OA_06_JPPR_60_4_823_Skowronska.pdf}, doi={10.24425/jppr.2020.134914}, keywords={leaf rust, Lr34, Lr46, Lr68, multiplex PCR}, }
