    There is no general debt-to-gdp ratio rule because a bond yield depends on many other factors, not only on debt-to-gdp ratio.

    For example, the United States has a very high debt-to-gdp ratio of over 100%, but the US bond is considered to be the safest bond in the market, has a high credit rating of AA + according to Firtch, Moody's and S&P, and is a cheap bond because interest rates in the US are low, so the coupon payments are low as well.

    The yield to maturity of a 10 year US bond is around 2%. Therefore, what all this information is telling us, is that even if debt-to-gdp ratio in the US continues to increase, the US bonds yields will probably continue to be stable. They will not spike because the debt-to-gdp ratio increases.
