Evidence for resistance polymorphism in the Bromus tectorum-Ustilago bullata pathosystem: implications for biocontrol

2001-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Bromus tectorum L. (cheatgrass or downy brome) is an important exotic weed in natural ecosystems as well as in winter cereal cropland in semiarid western North America. The systemic, seedling-infecting head smut pathogen Ustilago bullata Berk. commonly infects cheatgrass stands, often at epidemic levels. We examined factors controlling U. bullata infection levels in greenhouse studies with parental lines of four B...
