“…Similarly, SR resistance genes that have been cloned include Yr5/YrSP and Yr7 ( Marchal et al, 2018 ), Yr10 ( Liu et al, 2014 ), Yr15 ( Klymiuk et al, 2018 ), Yr18 ( Krattinger et al, 2009 ), Yr36 ( Fu et al, 2009 ), and Yr46 ( Moore et al, 2015 ). Yr10 is considered the first seedling resistance gene cloned while other genes such as Yr18/Lr34/Sr57/Pm38 , and Yr46/Lr67/Sr55/Pm39 possess multi-pathogen (partial) slow rusting APR functionality against the three wheat rusts and powdery mildew ( Spielmeyer et al, 2005 ; Krattinger et al, 2009 ; Moore et al, 2015 ; Klymiuk et al, 2018 ; Figlan et al, 2020 ). Despite the paucity of success in gene cloning, pathways to engineer genes of interest via high throughput modern genome editing technology have already been unlocked ( Figlan et al, 2020 ) tracking success in powdery mildew resistance ( Wang et al, 2014 ).…”
