Subjects: Wheat fusarium culmorum head blight, Host-parasite relationships, Fungal gene expression, Microbial invasiveness, Pathogenic microorganisms, Genomics
Abstract: The article presents a genomic analysis of host-pathogen interaction between Fusarium graminearum and wheat during early stages of head blight development by researchers from the U.S. In this study, the researchers attempt to understand fungal gene expression related to pathogenecity. Three cDNA libraries were created by suppression subtractive hybridization using wheat heads inoculated with a highly aggressive strain and either water or a less aggressive strain of this pathogen.
