Abstract
A study of the physiological races of wheat stem and leaf rusts in Libyan Jamahiriya during 1975 revealed the existence of six races of Puccinia graminis tritici, namely 141, 129. 38. 40. 128. 144. 154 and 163 arranged according to their prevalence respectively.
Twenty-five promising lines and varieties of wheat were screened for their resistance to race 24 of stem rust and race 129 of leaf rust in the seedling stage. The results obtained showed that all the tested lines were resistant to stem rust and some lines originated from the cross (Nia 160 x Sidi Masri) x Sidi-Masri were resistant to leaf rust.
