Off-season sex in <i>Zymoseptoria tritici</i> : little room for late encounters

2025-08-05

Abstract excerpt

This study complements a substantial body of experimental work on the model fungal pathogen Zymoseptoria tritici by exploring marginal processes and conditions of sexual reproduction. Recent findings have shown that avirulent strains can engage in sexual reproduction on resistant host plants, even when they fail to cause visible symptoms during the biotrophic phase. The objective was here to examine the (de)coupl...
