Wheat is increasingly being grown in marginal environments, in "nontraditional" areas and/or on problem soils. To improve the dependability of yields in these diverse environments means placing greater emphasis in breeding programs on incorporating (1) resistance to various diseases, (2) tolerance to such soil problems as salt and toxic levels of aluminum, and (3) tolerance to drought and heat. Of special interest in this regard are the expanding efforts to improve resistance to the so-called "minor" diseases of wheat, such as those caused by Septoria, Helminthosporium and Fusarium species. Moreover, cooperative work with Brazil to enhance
