The result showed that 15 species were successfully in-oculated by the mildew pathog en. The mildew spores produced on 14 diseased Elymus species plants were collected and inoculated back to the wheat plants. The ino culation was also successful. The infection indicated that Elymus belonged to the wheat mildew host category in China.T hey have the potential to transmit powdery mildew pathogens.The possibility of the Elymus species transmitting new races in contiguous areas between countries was discussed.
