Abstract

The main disadvantage of stem rust-resistant wheat varieties grown in Western Australia has been that they do not yield as well as susceptible varieties, particularly the standard variety Gamenya.

The development of a new, high yielding, good quality rust-resistant variety is therefore a major advance for the West Australian wheat industry.
