Abstract excerpt
In humid and temperate areas, Septoria nodorum blotch (SNB) is a major fungal disease of common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in which grain yield is reduced when the pathogen, Parastagonospora nodorum, infects leaves and glumes during grain filling. Foliar SNB susceptibility may be associated with sensitivity to P. nodorum necrotrophic effectors (NEs). Both foliar and glume susceptibility are quantitative, and...
