II. Gaps in wheat rust research
We value your opinion on the following questions regarding the current status and needs in global wheat rust research:

1. What do you see as the key challenges in surveillance techniques and logisitics?

2. What do you see as the key challenges in race analysis, nursery innoculation, scoring, and trap nurseries?

3. What challenges do you face in maintaining awareness of the latelst knowledge of effective resistance genes?

4. Are you learning abour new rust races and their distribution as fast as you would like to? If not, what hurdles do you face?

5. Do you have outlets to share your knowledge as rapidly as you would like?

6. How is wheat stem rust research limited by infrastructure/capacity?

7. What gaps exist in our ability to track pathogens?

8. What are the greatest outstanding gaps in breeding stem rust resistant wheat varieties?

9. Where should investments be made in molecular marker research?

10. What are the major gaps in knowledge of wheat or wheat rust research?

11. What should be addressed?
12. What is missing in the current portfolio of wheat rust projects?
13. What is your vision for the:
a. Immediate future?
b. Next 3 years?
c. Next five years?
d. Next ten years?
