Stripe Rust

• Expanding Geography• US: epidemics expand from PNW (pre-2000) to Central States

(post-2000) (Chen 2005)

• CWANA: Yr9 and Yr27 driven epidemics since 1980s (Solh et al. 2012)

• South Africa: first report of stripe rust during 1996 (Pretorius et al. 1997)

• Australia: annual $40-90 million spent on fungicides (Wellings2007)

• Aggressiveness / Increased Fitness• Isolates collected since 2000 are better adapted at warmer

temperatures (Milus et al. 2009)

• Other factors contributed to increased aggressiveness (Loladze et al. 2014)

• Disease Free Yield

Step 2

• Counterfactual yield assuming two scenarios:

• Low losses: with resistant varieties

• High losses: without resistant varieties

Research Investments Attributable to Rust

Reference Period Stripe Rust Stem Rust

2000-2050 (2010 prices)

Annual Spending(Economically Justifiable)**

$38.6 million $51.1 million

Per Hectare* (18 cents) (23 cents)

*In comparison, U.S. wheat farmers spent $27.69 per hectare on seed in 2010

**Actual stem rust R&D spending is estimated less than half the amount, and stripe rust spending is even less than stem rust

Economic justification: Developing effective resistance through R&D investment is more beneficial than exposing susceptible wheat to rust epidemics

Preliminary Data: Do Not

Summary

•Rapid spread of stripe rust epidemics• Spatial expansion: almost 90 percent of the world’s wheat

production is susceptible to stripe rust• Frequency increase• Losses severe

• Our (beta) assessment suggests that around $39 million per year be spent to alleviate global losses from stripe rust• About three quarters the corresponding stem rust research investment

• Difference• Stem Rust: projected losses

• Stripe Rust: observed losses

Preliminary Data: Do Not
