Abstract excerpt
The main aim of this study was to test the patterns of sequence divergence and haplotype structure at the MAT locus of Pyrenophora teres, the causal agent of barley 'net blotch' disease. P. teres is a heterothallic ascomycete that co-occurs in two symptomatological forms, the net form (NF) and the spot form (SF). The mating-type genes MAT1-1-1 and MAT1-2-1 were sequenced from 22 NF isolates (12 MAT1-1-1 and 10...
