One-hundred and fifty-four leaf samples were collected randomly in farmer fields and research stations across the northeast region of India (Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal and Assam) and the Tarai region of Nepal, and 84 in different regions of Kazakhstan, Kyrghistan and Russia. Besides the identification and isolation of leaf blights pathogens, P. tritici-repentis isolates were typed to race by inoculating them individually on the wheat differential set developed by Lamari et al.
