Genes Lr10 and Lr16 for seedling resistance and gene Lr12 for adult-plant resistance to leaf rust in common wheat were located on specific chromosomes by monosomic analysis using the Rescue monosomic series. Gene Lr10 is on chromosome 1A and genes Lr12 and Lr16 are on chromosome 4A. The latter two genes must be more than 50 crossover units apart since they segregated independently. These three genes were backcrossed into Thatcher from the variety Exchange. The variety Chinese Spring probably carries gene Lr12.
