    This dataset includes SNPs of 556 isolates of the wheat leaf rust fungus, Puccina triticina from 11 worldwide regions that were mapped to the reference genome. This data was used to examine the population structure of Puccinia triticina on a worldwide basis, and to examine the evolutionary relationship between collections from a wheat progenitor, collections from durum wheat, and collections from common wheat. Groups of isolates that were highly related were found in distant continental regions, indicating past and current migration of this important wheat pathogen. Data is being released now in conjunction with publication of a primary research paper that describes this research.
