Wheat yellow rust is a fungal disease caused by the pathogen Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici. It primarily affects wheat crops, leading to yellowing of leaves, stunted growth, and reduced grain yield. The disease thrives in cool, moist conditions and can spread rapidly, especially in dense plantings. Farmers can manage wheat yellow rust through various methods, including resistant wheat varieties, crop rotation, and timely fungicide applications. Early detection and monitoring are crucial to prevent significant crop losses and ensure healthy harvests.
