(A) Powdery mildew disease symptom scores (0 = resistant to 9 = susceptible) and (B) Yellow rust severity (%) for 134 pre-breeding lines PBLs. Green and red bars indicate resistant and susceptible PBLs, respectively. (C) Y-axis, grain yield (Mg/ha, black triangles) and zinc content [(µg g−1 × 0.1), orange (2015) and grey (2016) dots] for 8 PBLs and 2 check lines (X-axis). PBLs 6 and 8 had similar grain yield but significantly higher zinc content as the checks, whereas PBL 4 had very high zinc content (up to 18 µg g−1 higher) but low grain yield. LSD for zinc content in 2015 and 2016 was 6.8 and 6.3 µg g−1, respectively.
