Ug99 – A call to action
● 1999: Confirmation of loss of important Sr genes (Sr31, Sr38 +++) “Ug99” [TTKSK]
● 2005: “Sounding the Alarm on Global Stem Rust”. Formation of the Borlaug Global Rust Initiative
● ?’s – Susceptibility? Where next? How soon?....
● Clear need for effective monitoring & surveillance
●1998: Anomalous results from a nursery in Uganda

Response to Ug99: Progress to date
• Global awareness on vulnerability of wheat crop (rusts in general)
• Monitoring system in place – current status + monitoring pathogen populations
• Information systems / tools in place• International networks emerging, increased national
capacity for surveillance and monitoring• Resistant varieties in seed chain

Stripe Rust 2011: Hitting the headlines

Current Threat: Stripe Rust
• The most damaging wheat disease on the global scale
• 2 New highly aggressive strains + rapid global spread (Hovmøller et al., 2008)
• Breakdown of a key resistance gene (Yr27) in CWANA – (prior warnings: Singh & Huerta-Espino,
2001; McDonald et al., 2004)• Mega cultivars withYr27 are currently
planted on more than 15 million hectares (North Africa to South Asia)
![Page 17: BGRI Global Rust Monitoring: Challenges and Opportunities for Stripe Rust](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110118/55502ba5b4c905de2d8b4b8c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Yr27 Virulence?
1995
1998
2002 2001
By 2009 to 2010: Yr27 virulence widespread
All same pathotypes? All aggressive strains? Movements vs
independent events?
GRRC, ICARDA rust facility + others all playing a vital role
![Page 18: BGRI Global Rust Monitoring: Challenges and Opportunities for Stripe Rust](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110118/55502ba5b4c905de2d8b4b8c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Challenges• Disease widespread and dispersed• An uncertain target (Yr27 vir, Aggressive
pathotypes...)?• Movements?
– pathogen present (throughout?)– conducive environment main driver of outbreaks?
• High inoculum levels: very high risk of accidental human-borne movements
• Role of changing climate?• Sampling
– over-capacity in terms of collection– under capacity in terms of analysis
• Rapid detection + reporting + good contingency plan required for targeted chemical control on initial outbreaks
![Page 19: BGRI Global Rust Monitoring: Challenges and Opportunities for Stripe Rust](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110118/55502ba5b4c905de2d8b4b8c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Opportunities
• Foundation / lessons learned from stem rust– data management + information systems– surveillance networks– global overview
• Cultivar change – promotion of durable resistant cultivars (other rusts + traits as well)
![Page 20: BGRI Global Rust Monitoring: Challenges and Opportunities for Stripe Rust](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110118/55502ba5b4c905de2d8b4b8c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Issues to be addressed
• Rapid detection + reporting: – sms networks, in-country systems, information flows
• Environmental suitability– improved early warning of disease, models
• Pathotyping capacity– international + in-country
• Efficient promotion and deployment of durable resistance
• Resourcing
![Page 21: BGRI Global Rust Monitoring: Challenges and Opportunities for Stripe Rust](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110118/55502ba5b4c905de2d8b4b8c/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• Many pieces of the puzzle are there (in this room!)– CG Centers (CIMMYT, ICARDA)– Global Rust Reference Centre, Aarhus– Advanced Rust Research Labs– National Programs– International Agencies– Donors– International Surveillance Networks– Information Systems + Data Management Tools
