Currently the screening program tests cereal lines in small, space-planted plots that are exposed to naturally ocurring epidemics of barley yellow dwarf virus. We have the capability of infesting plots with greenhouse-reared viruliferous aphids. Lines that show visual resistance in Mexico have been distributed to selected sites worlwide. There is a great deal of among-site variation in resistance, but some lines of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. var durum), barley (HordeumCollection: AGRIS Collection
