Abstract Background Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by species like F. graminearum is a devastating disease of wheat ( Triticum aestivum ) worldwide. Mycotoxins such as deoxynivalenol produced the fungus affect plant and animal health, cause significant reductions grain yield quality. Resistant varieties are only effective way to control this disease, but molecular events leading FHB resistance still poorly understood. Transcriptional profiling was conducted for winter cultivars Dream...
Label-free chemical imaging of a wide range metabolites in all major plant organs acquired at high spatial resolution.
The economic importance of cereals such as barley, and the demand for improved yield quality require a better understanding genetic components that modulate biologically commercially relevant traits. While Arabidopsis thaliana is premiere model plant system, spectrum its traits cannot address all fundamental questions crop development. Unlike Arabidopsis, barley both system scientific research, it increasingly being used molecular investigations into conserved biological processes cereals. A...
Genetic diversity represents the fundamental key to breeding success, providing basis for breeders select varieties with constantly improving yield performance. On other hand, strong selection during domestication and have eliminated considerable genetic in pools of major crops, causing erosion potential adaptation emerging challenges like climate change. High‐throughput genomic technologies can address this dilemma by detailed knowledge characterize replenish programs. In hexaploid bread...
Fusarium graminearum is one of the most common and potent fungal pathogens wheat (Triticum aestivum), known for causing devastating spike infections grain yield damage. F. a typical soil-borne pathogen that builds up during consecutive cereal cropping. Speculation on systemic colonization cereals by root infection have long existed but not been proven. We assessed rot disease macroscopically in diverse set 12 genotypes microscopically comparative study two with diverging responses. Here, we...
Fusarium graminearum is a major pathogen of wheat causing head blight (FHB). Its ability to colonize via seedling root infection has been reported recently. Our previous study on rot (FRR) disclosed histological characteristics pathogenesis and defense that mirror processes spike infection. Therefore, it would be interesting understand whether genes relevant for FHB resistance are induced in roots. The concept similar-acting mechanisms provides basis research at broad crop plants. However,...
Fungal pathogens like Fusarium graminearum can cause severe yield losses and mycotoxin contamination of food feed worldwide. We recently showed its ability to systemically colonize wheat via root infection. However, the molecular response rot (FRR) infection systemic spread is still unknown. As a camera, mass spectrometry (MS) imaging combines label-free multiplex metabolite profiling with histopathology. Atmospheric-pressure (AP)-SMALDI-MS was combined optical microscopy study wheat-F....
The ongoing global intensification of wheat production will likely be accompanied by a rising pressure Fusarium diseases. While utmost attention was given to head blight (FHB) belowground plant infections the pathogen have largely been ignored. current knowledge about impact soil borne infection on performance and underlying genetic mechanisms for resistance remain very limited. Here, we present first large-scale investigation root rot (FRR) using diverse panel 215 international lines. We...
Fusarium Head Blight is the most common fungal disease that strongly affects Triticum spp., reducing crop yield and leading to accumulation of toxic metabolites. Several studies have investigated plant metabolic response counteract mycotoxins accumulation. However, information on precise location where defense mechanism taking place scarce. Therefore, this study aimed investigate specific tissue distribution metabolites in two species use postulate metabolites' functional role, unlocking...
Fusarium graminearum is one of the most common and potent fungal pathogens wheat (Triticum aestivum) other cereals, known for causing devastating yield losses mycotoxin contaminations food feed. The pathogen mainly considered as a paradigm floral disease head blight, while its ability to colonize plants via root infection has been examined recently. F. unique strategy which comprises complex, specialized structures processes. Root colonisation negatively affects plant development leads...
