association mapping of seedling resistance to spot form net blotch in a worldwide collection of barley. | spot form net blotch (sfnb), caused by the necrotrophic fungal pathogen pyrenophora teres f. maculata, is an important foliar disease of barley in major production regions around the world. deployment of adequate host resistance is challenging because the virulence of p. teres f. maculata is highly variable and characterized minor-effect resistances are typically ineffective against the diverse pathogen populations. a world barley core collection consisting of 2,062 barley accessions of diverse ... | 2015 | 25870925 |
evaluation of a barley core collection for spot form net blotch reaction reveals distinct genotype-specific pathogen virulence and host susceptibility. | spot form net blotch (sfnb) caused by pyrenophora teres f. maculata is a major foliar disease of barley (hordeum vulgare) worldwide. sfnb epidemics have recently been observed in major barley producing countries, suggesting that the local barley cultivars are not resistant and that virulence of the local pathogen populations may have changed. here we attempt to identify sources of resistance effective against four diverse isolates of p. teres f. maculata collected from around the world. a total ... | 2015 | 25870926 |
