Glutathione S-transferase (GST) activity pattern was determined in tolerant (cv. Sumai#3) and susceptible (cv. Falat) wheat heads inoculated with Fusarium graminearum, the causal agent of head scab disease (FHB), during various developmental stages. GST specific activity exhibited a transient pattern in Sumai#3 reaching a maximum level at the milk stage and declining thereafter. GST level in Su...

Resistance to Fusarium head blight (FHB) of spelt wheat was investigated in field trials carried out at three European locations between 2016 and 2018. assessed after artificial inoculation by visual scoring symptoms the determination contamination grains glumes with mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON). It found that typical traits such as tall plant height, lax spikes, tough play a role passive res...

One of the greatest problems in breeding for Fusarium head blight (FHB) resistance lies in the difficulty of assessing the disease. Air separation methods have long been used in the seed industry for seed conditioning purposes and in seed labs to measure the proportion of different components of seed samples. An air separation machine was specifically developed from a Precision Machine head thr...

glutathione s-transferase (gst) activity pattern was determined in tolerant (cv. sumai#3) and susceptible (cv. falat) wheat heads inoculated with fusarium graminearum, the causal agent of head scab disease (fhb), during various developmental stages. gst specific activity exhibited a transient pattern in sumai#3 reaching a maximum level at the milk stage and declining thereafter. gst level in su...

Among the fungal diseases that affect wheat in temperate growing areas, Septoria Leaf Blotch (SLB) and Fusarium head blight (FHB) result yield sanitary risk losses could be minimized through appropriate fungicide applications. Furthermore, request from policy makers food market to reduce use of chemical pesticides agriculture has driven research direction performant defense strategies with a re...

Abstract Background Durum wheat ( Triticum durum Desf.) is one of the most important cereals in world. Unfortunately, plant a target several species genus Fusarium. This causes two serious diseases: fusarium crown rot (FCR) and head blight (FHB). The search for new indigenous strains Trichoderma with high potential biocontrol against these diseases was purpose this study. Results Biocontrol 15 ...

The Fusarium graminearum species complex (FGSC) is a group of mycotoxigenic fungi that are the primary cause of Fusarium head blight (FHB) of wheat worldwide. The distribution, frequency of occurrence, and genetic diversity of FGSC species in cereal crops in South America is not well understood compared to some regions of Asia, Europe and North America. Therefore, we examined the frequency and ...

ABSTRACT Gibberella zeae, causal agent of Fusarium head blight (FHB) of wheat and barley and Gibberella ear rot (GER) of corn, may be transported over long distances in the atmosphere. Epidemics of FHB and GER may be initiated by regional atmospheric sources of inoculum of G. zeae; however, little is known about the origin of inoculum for these epidemics. We tested the hypothesis that atmospher...

This cross-sectional study aimed to investigate the relationship between foot shape and intrinsic muscles (IFMs) in adolescent swimmers compared with other athletes. Foot morphology of was athletes comparable age a competition level (n = 32 [64 feet]; total 64 feet; 128 feet two groups). variables IFMs were measured using three-dimensional scanner an ultrasound imaging system, respectively. Mul...

Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused mainly by Fusarium graminearum Schwabe [telomorph: Gibberella zeae Schwein.(Petch)] in the US, is one of the most destructive diseases of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. and T. durum L.). Infected grain is usually contaminated with deoxynivalenol (DON), a serious mycotoxin. The challenge in FHB resistance breeding is combining resistance with superior agronomic an...
