Seedling Blight Development and Control in Spring Wheat Damaged by Fusarium graminearum Group 2

Phylogeny and genetic diversity of Fusarium graminearum species complex associated with Fusarium head blight of wheat in Moghan plain (Iran)

Thirty-seven isolates of Fusarium graminearum species complexobtained from wheat heads with Fusarium head blight symptoms were selected and used for phylogenetic studies. They were collected from different localities of Moghan plain (Ardebil province, Iran). Partial sequences of translation elongation factor 1-alpha (TEF), putative reductase (RED) and UTP-ammonia ligase (URA) genes were amplifi...

The Development of Scab (fusarium Graminearum) Resistant Varieties of Wheat

Fusarium head blight (FHB) is a serious disease of wheat and barley that is best controlled by host resistance. In KSU Extension publications, the reaction to FHB for winter wheat cultivars is reported to producers using a 1-9 scale where 1-3 = resistant, 4-6 = intermediate, and 7-9 = susceptible. This research sought to determine how many location-years are needed to accurately determine the r...

Analysis of Deoxynivalenol and Deoxynivalenol-3-glucoside in Hard Red Spring Wheat Inoculated with Fusarium Graminearum

Deoxynivalenol (DON) is a mycotoxin affecting wheat quality. The formation of the "masked" mycotoxin deoxinyvalenol-3-glucoside (D3G) results from a defense mechanism the plant uses for detoxification. Both mycotoxins are important from a food safety point of view. The aim of this work was to analyze DON and D3G content in inoculated near-isogenic wheat lines grown at two locations in Minnesota...
