TL;DR: The Middle East-East Africa is confirmed as the most likely source of newly spreading, high-temperature-adapted strains; Europe as the source of South American, North American and Australian populations; and Mediterranean-Central Asian populations as the origin of South African populations.

TL;DR: The study illustrated the potential role of sexual Puccinia striiformis populations as a reservoir for new races replacing distant clonal populations in the centre of diversity of the yellow rust fungus in the near-Himalayan region of Asia.

TL;DR: The results emphasized the lack of predictability of emergence of new races with high epidemic potential, which stresses the need for additional investments in population biology and surveillance activities of pathogens on global food crops, and assessments of disease vulnerability of host varieties prior to their deployment at larger scales.

TL;DR: Different nutrient application measures were studied for their impact on crop yield and yield-related parameters in a series of experiments conducted at agricultural research farm, NWFP Agricultural University Peshawar, Pakistan from 2004 through 2007.

TL;DR: In this paper, the response of wheat to foliar application of nutrients, an experiment was conducted at Agricultural Research Farm of NWFP Agricultural University Peshawar during winter 2005-06.
