19 Yellow rust pairwise interactions and allele stacking Many different interactions patterns detected Additive Synergistic Redundancy Suppressors (often rare susceptible loci) Require different breeding approaches Some suppressors still present at a relatlively high frequency Some interactions with novel loci not found in single marker GWAS Some of these novel loci were found in NIAB MAGIC MAGIC and Wagtail in agreement when interactions considered 14
