Download or read book Fusarium Head Blight of Wheat and Barley written by Kurt J. Leonard and published by American Phytopathological Society. This book was released on 2003 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides a comprehensive record of current knowledge on the nature of Fusarium head blight, the damage it causes, and current research on how to control it. The book begins with a historical account of Fusarium head blight epidemics that gives context to recent attempts to control epidemics in wheat and barley. A review of pathogen taxonomy and population biology helps scientists to see relationships among head blight pathogens and other Fusarium species. The information on epidemiology included in this review also provides an understanding of the weather conditions and cultural practices that promote explosive epidemics. New information on infection processes will lead the reader to a better understanding of how to breed for resistance in wheat and barley.
Download or read book Species Diversity of Fusarium Head Blight and Deoxynivalenol DON Levels in Western Canadian Wheat Fields and Generating Leptosphaeria Maculans Isolates Carrying Single Avirulent Avr Genes written by Sachithrani Kannangara and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wheat and canola are two major economically important food crops grown in western Canada, accounting for billions of dollars in revenue. Fusarium head blight (FHB) in wheat and blackleg in canola are the most destructive diseases that cause economic losses annually. Both diseases are caused by fungal pathogens, where FHB is primarily caused by Fusarium graminearum, while Leptosphaeria maculans causes the blackleg disease. This project's first objective is to evaluate the Fusarium species diversity and deoxynivalenol (DON) levels in western Canadian wheat fields in 2019 and 2020. The analysis of deoxynivalenol (DON) revealed that spring wheat grain contained higher DON levels than winter wheat grain samples. Additionally, for spring wheat, a significantly lower DON content was found in the grain than in the chaff collected from the same wheat heads for both years. The species diversity analysis showed that F. graminearum was the most frequent Fusarium species found in the infected samples except the samples from Alberta, while the highest percentage of F. graminearum was found in the spring wheat samples from Manitoba. The analysis of chemotype diversity of infected samples showed that 3ADON is the dominant chemotype in FHB disease. For the blackleg disease, a growing concern among blackleg researchers is that resistance (R) genes are identified, the same gene as two different genes by two independent laboratories, as not all research laboratories use a standard set of well-characterized isolates. To standardize the R gene identification and novel R gene discovery, the second objective of this thesis is to develop a procedure to generate L. maculans isolates that only carry a single avirulent (Avr) gene. Mating between two L. maculans isolates showed less efficiency in achieving the above objective. Thus, gene editing with the clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)/Cas9 was utilized. Seven transformed isolates displayed reduced virulence on the canola cultivar Westar, even though they were not mutated at the target gene.

Book excerpt: Contains summaries of oral & poster presentations at a workshop held to provide information on fusarium head blight, identify & prioritize areas of concern requiring study, and propose solutions to this disease, one of the most important diseases of small grains in North America. Topics covered include the fusarium situation in Canada and other countries, impacts on food safety, fusarium epidemiology, effects on wheat milling & end-product quality, feed contamination, marketing implications of infected grains, breeding grains for fusarium resistance, chemical control, biotechnology & genetics of resistance, and survival of seed-borne fusarium.
Download or read book EVALUATION OF FUSARIUM HEAD BLIGHT CAUSAL SPECIES AND DISEASE FORECASTS FOR THE MARITIME PROVINCES OF CANADA written by Emily Johnstone and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fusarium head blight (FHB) caused by Fusarium graminearum is an important consideration in cereal production as the fungus reduces yields and deposits mycotoxins in grain. Characteristics of the Fusarium spp. population found in the Maritime provinces of Canada are not well understood thus, an objective of this study was to describe the local population. Wheat and barley samples from 39 sites across the Maritimes were surveyed to determine Fusarium spp. and mycotoxins present from 2018 to 2021. Management of FHB may be supported by disease forecasting systems therefore, FHB forecasts were evaluated in comparison to epidemic records and field experiments. Fusarium graminearum was the primary causal species of concern and deoxynivalenol was the most abundant mycotoxin detected each year. FHB was most accurately forecasted using 7-day pre-anthesis relative humidity and temperature. This study represents the first multi-year survey of FHB causal species and evaluation of FHB forecasting in the Maritimes.

This book was released on 2013-09-07 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fusarium head blight (FHB) on small-grain cereals is one of the most devastating diseases. Several species can cause head blight, though Fusarium graminearum is the predominant pathogen in most regions. F. graminearum is one of the most intensively studied fungal plant pathogens. This book presents the current state of knowledge regarding mycological aspects that make wheat-Fusarium interaction, such as hyphal growth, morphogenesis in germinating spores, visualization of enzymatic hydrolysis, production of mycotoxins, inhibition of the hyphal growth by antagonist microorganisms, use of natural substances or by modification of the host resistance, as well as genetic analysis and expression of genes that regulate the infection. Fungal ecology and epidemiology will also be discussed. Just as the analysis of environmental requirements for the establishment of the disease, the use of forecasts of disease risk with meteorological base and integrated management and control. This book includes the study of disease in Latin America, therefore will be of interest to researchers who are working on the issue, as for those who are interested in knowing about the disease.
