The main objective within new approach in international pathogenicity surveys of Puccinia recondita tritici was to provide genetically diverse sources of resistance (wheat lines with pyramiding resistant genes) to be used in a survey of wheat leaf rust pathogen in European-Mediterranean regions and to search for and document pathogenicity of P. recondita tritici cultures useful in differentiating sources of resistance. Emphasis is placed on sources of resistance and their usefulness rather than on description of fungus populations. In this international survey new methods have been applied containing Central Field Nursery, Central Seedling Tests, Cooperative Seedling Tests and Regional Field Nurseries (ELRWN-European Leaf Rust of Wheat Nursery). The results have been reported from one year of investigations. ELRWN contained 20 winter wheat hybrid lines with pyramiding resistant genes including strong ones Lr9, Lr19 and Lr24. In addition, 16 spring wheat lines were included, as control lines were Lr9, Lr18, Lr19, Lr24 and Lr14. In that year ELRWN have been realized in 13 countries and cooperative seedling test in 8 countries using 22 pathotypes of P. recondita tritici. The best results obtained by the winter wheat lines NS-66/5'Lr24, NS-77/2'Lr19, NS- 37/2'Lr19 and spring wheat lines 647-CMA-14793 and 26TH-ESWYT-10. The results have shown loosing almost complete resistance of Lr9 and Lr24, but much less Lr19.
