Abstract excerpt
Most research on host?pathogen interactions is focused on mechanisms of resistance, but less is known regarding mechanisms of susceptibility. The wheat?Stagonospora nodorum pathosystem involves pathogen-produced effectors, also known as host-selective toxins, that interact with corresponding dominant host genes to cause disease. Recognition of the S. nodorum effectors SnToxA and SnTox2 is mediated by the wheat...
