Characterization and silencing of differentially abundant proteins from Pyrenophora tritici-repentis
DownloadFall 2011
Tan spot, caused by Pyrenophora tritici-repentis, is an important foliar disease of wheat. Three genes (stp, unp and glu) encoding proteins previously found to be more abundant in pathogenic versus non-pathogenic fungal isolates were cloned, characterized, heterologously expressed, and silenced...

Quantifying Infection of Wheat by Races of Pyrenophora tritici-repentis Producing Different Host-Selective Toxins
DownloadFall 2018
Pyrenophora tritici-repentis, the cause of tan spot of wheat, produces several host-selective toxins (HSTs), including Ptr ToxA and Ptr ToxB. Ptr ToxA-producing isolates are predominant in Canada, while Ptr ToxB-producing isolates are extremely rare. The reason for the scarcity of ToxB+ isolates...
