This study was designed due to the immense importance of wheat stripe rust in Pakistan. Considerable stripe rust with diversity among tested varieties for both adult plant resistance parameters and agronomic traits were registered. Based on overall traits, Kohsar-93, Bakhtawar-93, Saleem-2000, Fakhre-Sarhad, Tatara, Frontana and Karwan were considered suitable varieties with better level of cumulative adult plant resistance across NWFP, Pakistan. These may be recommended for cultivation and could be used in different breeding programmes in Pakistan. However, studies carried out under controlled environment with pure race culture along with molecular markers may be even more valid in elucidating the genetic mechanism of stripe ruts resistance these varieties.
