Includes bibliographical references. The thesis aims to characterise the basis of naturally occuring resistance to BYDV in cereals in three ways: i. A map-based approach to the isolation of the Yd2 gene for BYDV resistance from barley. -- ii. Determining if a BYDV resistance gene in rice is orthologous to Yd2. -- iii. Establishing if other BYDV resistance genes in non-Ethiopian barleys are allelic to Yd2.
