Abstract
High-yielding durum wheat (Triticum turgidum) cultivars, derived from the CIMMYT (International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center) germ plasm, are grown on approximately 40% of the global durum wheat area. Because of the lack of information on their genes for resistance to leaf rust, crosses in a diallel arrangement (without reciprocals) were made among nine resistant CIMMYT-derived durums and the accession DW7276, which is susceptible to Mexican Puccinia recondita f. sp. tritici pathotype BBB/BN. Mexican durums were also crossed with the adult-plant resistant land race cultivar Iumillo (.)
