Wheat rust resistant by glasshouse breeding in Australia
South Australia Waite Agricultural Research Institute breeder A. T. Pugsley reports a new rust resistant wheat variety developed by growing under electric light in glasshouses. The method accelerated evolutionary progress sixfold and produced summer and winter ripe plants, with Waite scientists already listing 11 rust resistant varieties including Glenwari which yielded 47 bushels per acre. Rust devastates crops in eastern states, with NSW losses around 7 million bushels and £3,006,000 in value, the worst since 1916. Riverina region rust resistance remains low at about 3 percent.
