Kinetin induces the resistance of wheat Triticum L. to leaf rust Puccinia triticina Erikss

Using the inoculation of both the intact plants of Triticum L. and leaf segments of the plant in the presence of kinetin with the complex population of Puccinia triticina Erikss, the genotype-dependent induction of resistance by kinetin was found. It was proved that this induction depends on the concrete gene of resistance of the plant and on the genotype of pathogen.
