Seedling resistance of 46 bread wheat and 14 durum wheat cultivars grown commonly in Turkey to stem rust races TTTTF, RTTTC, and RTTTF, the most common races in the Kastamonu region of Turkey, was determined under greenhouse conditions. Bread wheat cultivars Tahirova 2000, Yildirim, Alpu 2001, Canik 2003 and Basri Bey 95 were found to be resistant to three stem rust races. Durum wheat cultivars Sari Canak 98 and Firat 93 were resistant to stem rust race TTTTF. Durum wheat cultivars Eminbey, Altintas 95, Zuhre and Sari Canak 98 were resistant to stem rust race RTTTC whereas durum wheat cultivars Eminbey, Altintas 95, Imren, Yelken 2000 and Zuhre exhibited resistant reaction to stem rust race RTTTF. The majority of the wheat cultivars tested showed susceptible reactions to these stem rust races.
