Septoria tritici blotch (STB), caused by the ascomycete fungus Mycosphaerella graminicola (asexual stage: Septoria tritici), is one of the most important foliar diseases of wheat. In this research, quantitative expression analysis of five candidate genes for the induction of resistance to STB (PR-1, Bsi, Msr, Per, and Ppi) was conducted in the wheat cultivars ‘Seri 82’ (susceptible) and ‘Fronta...

thrips specimens were collected in the year 2014 on different ornamental plants from mahallat (markazi province), iran. in this study, 11 species in six genera and three different families of thysanoptera were collected and identified. the scientific names of thrips species are as follow: melanthrips knechteli, m. pallidior, frankliniella intonsa, f. occidentalis, microcephalothrips abdominalis...

Septoria tritici blotch (STB), caused by the fungus Zymoseptoria tritici, is a major constraint in global wheat production. The lack of genetic diversity modern elite cultivars largely hinders improvement STB resistance. Wheat landraces are reservoirs untapped diversity, which can be exploited to find novel resistance genes or alleles. Here, we characterized 188 Swiss for using four Z. isolates...

septoria tritici blotch is an important wheat disease in many areas of the world including iran's warm, humidregions. in this study, crosses were made between resistant breeding line bobwhite#1/fengkang andcommercial cultivars moghan3, koohdasht, tajan and morvarid, and derived f1, f2, bc1 and bc2 generations were used to determine the genetic control of necrosis, pycnidia traits and the area u...

Abstract Leaf blotch diseases (LBD), such as Septoria nodorum bloch ( Parastagnospora ), tritici Zymoseptoria ) and Tan spot Pyrenophora tritici-repentis can cause severe yield losses (up to 50%) in Norwegian spring wheat Triticum aestivum are mainly controlled by fungicide applications. A forecasting model predict disease risk be an important tool optimize control. The association between spec...

The production, isolation, and characterization of an antibiotic substance from cultures of Pseudomonas fluorescens 2-79 (NRRL B-15132) is described. P. fluorescens 2-79 originally was isolated from the roots of wheat and is suppressive to the wheat root disease take-all caused by Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici. The antibiotic was isolated from potato glucose broth cultures of strain 2-79...
