An international research collaboration with CIMMYT (International Maize and Wheat Improvement Center, Mexico) has developed new wheat germplasm carrying Karnal bunt resistance genes. These will be made available
to Australian breeders for variety development. As a prerequisite, this study was carried out to determine what penalties could affect yield or its components due to incorporating Karnal bunt resistance.
