Combining and mapping QTL for fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance in wheat
<p>Fusarium head blight (FHB) has become one of the most damaging wheat diseases in humid and semi-humid regions around the world. Single gene resistance to FHB in wheat provides only partial resistance and also the disease severity is highly influenced by environment. Consequently multiple genes …

Molecular mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) for Fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance and agronomic traits in US hard winter wheat
Fusarium head blight (FHB) is one of the devastating fungal diseases in wheat and results in dramatic losses in grain yield and quality. Use of genetic resistance is an effective approach to FHB control, but highly FHB resistant germplasms usually have many undesirable agronomic traits. To dissect …

Identification of Candidate Effector Proteins from Fusarium graminearum during Infection of Arabidopsis thaliana Using Proximity-Dependant Biotin Identification (BioID)
Fusarium graminearumis a fungal pathogen that causes Fusarium head blight (FHB) in cereal crops. Identifying proteins that are secreted from pathogens to overcome plant defenses and cause disease, collectively known as effectors, can reveal new targets for fungicides or other control …

WAVELENGTH AND VISUAL FEATURE SELECTION FOR NON-DESTRUCTIVE EVALUATION OF FUSARIUM HEAD BLIGHT IN WHEAT USING HYPERSPECTRAL IMAGING
Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a fungal disease affecting the heads of cereal crops and has caused significant economic losses in the Canadian prairie wheat industry. Although wheat breeding efforts to enhance resistance genes are ongoing, efficient and accurate detection of FHB remains critical for …

Quantitative Trait Loci for Resistance to Fusarium Head Blight in the Hulless Winter Barley Cultivar Eve
Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe, is a devastating fungal disease that affects barley production worldwide through damaged kernels, low yields, and production of mycotoxins. The most effective means of control is through the use of FHB resistant cultivars that are …

Development of new tools and germplasms for improvement of wheat resistance to Fusarium head blight
Wheat Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a devastating disease of wheat worldwide, which can significantly reduce grain yield and quality. Although the application of fungicides can reduce FHB damage, growing FHB resistant wheat is the most effective and eco-friendly approach to reduce the losses. To …

Background-dependent genetic architecture of Fusarium head blight resistance in U.S. hard winter wheat
Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused primarily by Fusarium graminearum, is one of the most destructive diseases of wheat worldwide, causing substantial yield losses and mycotoxin contamination of grain. Deployment of major resistance quantitative trait loci (QTL) through marker-assisted breeding is …

Detection of Fusarium Head Blight on Wheat Spikelets Using a Multi-Scale Feature Fusion CNN Model
Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a globally significant fungal disease that severely impacts wheat crops, leading to reduced yields, degraded grain quality, and the accumulation of harmful mycotoxins. These mycotoxins pose severe threats to human and animal health and result in substantial economic …

AFLP markers linked to Fusarium head blight resistance in Triticum aestivum.
… used to find markers linked to genes controlling Fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance in Triticum aestivum L. FHB is a disease of cereal crops that results in reduced wheat yields, discoloured, shrivelled kernels, mycotoxin accumulation, and reduced seed and grain quality. Since resistance …

Avoiding trade-off when enhancing Fusarium head blight resistance of barley
Fusarium head blight (FHB) is an economically important disease of barley caused by mycotoxin-producing Fusarium species. Resistance to FHB is associated with several agronomic traits, particularly height. Taller cultivars are generally more resistant; however increased height is less favourable …

Effects of the Lr34 and Lr46 rust-resistance genes on other diseases of wheat
… for tan spot (Pyrenophora tritici-repentis) or Fusarium head blight (FHB; Fusarium graminearum). These results presented indicate that there may be significant consequences for the use of Lr34 and Lr46 to control rust and mildew in areas where necrotrophic diseases are prevalent, including some …

Brachypodium distachyon as a genetic model pathosystem to study resistance against fungal pathogens of small grain cereals
ABSTRACT Fusarium head blight (FHB) and other Fusarium diseases of wheat and other small-grain cereals cause yield reduction and grain contamination with harmful mycotoxins, mainly deoxynivalenol (DON). Little is known about the mechanistic basis of resistance to Fusarium in cereals due to the …

A Genome Wide Association Study for Fusarium Head Blight Resistance in Southern Soft Red Winter Wheat
<p>Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a disease of small grains caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum. FHB poses potential economic losses and health risks due to the accumulation of the mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON) on infected seed heads. The objectives of this study are: 1) evaluate …

The wheat seed phytomicrobiome as a potential source of resistance to the fungal disease, Fusarium head blight
… plant pathogens. We investigated the wheat seed-head microbiome (phytomicrobiome) as a potential source of resistance to Fusarium head blight (FHB), or scab. FHB is a devastating disease in wheat, and other cereal grains, that causes losses in both quantity, through reduced yield, and quality of …

Identification of Native FHB Resistance QTL in the SRW Wheat Cultivar Jamestown
Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) is a devastating fungal disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and results in significant economic losses due to reductions in grain yield and the accumulation of mycotoxins, such as deoxynivalenol (DON) and nivalenol (NIV). As a result, breeding programs have been …

Chitosan oligosaccharide: use to control Fusarium head blight and to reduce deoxynivalenol accumulation in wheat grains
… diseases can affect crop yield. Among them, Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by members of the Fusarium graminearum species complex, is one of the most serious wheat diseases worldwide, resulting in lost ofin yield and grain quality due to the accumulation of mycotoxins. There are several …

Effects of chitosan oligosaccharide-amended fungicide treatments on the control of fusarium head blight in wheat
Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) is a destructive fungal disease of wheat caused primarily by Fusarium gramineraum, which reduces grain yield and quality through the accumulation of mycotoxins, especially deoxynivalenol (DON). Current management strategies rely heavily on fungicide applications; however, …

Assessment and Reaction of Triticum aestivum Genotypes to Fusarium graminearum and effects on Traits Related to Grain Yield and Seed Quality
Fusarium graminearum (Schwabe), causal organism of fusarium head blight (FHB), has become a major pathogen of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) throughout North America. Since its discovery in the United States, the disease has spread south and east until at present it is an annual threat for growers of …
