Zymoseptoria tritici suppresses the host immune response and facilitates the success of avirulent strains in mixed infections

A. Bernasconi, C. Lorrain, P. Flury, J. Alassimone, B. A. McDonald, A. Sanchez-Vallet

The paper shows that virulent Zymoseptoria tritici strains suppress wheat immunity, enabling avirulent strains to colonize and reproduce in mixed infections.

How large and diverse are field populations of fungal plant pathogens? The case of Zymoseptoria tritici

B. A. McDonald, F. Suffert, A. Bernasconi, A. Mikaberidze

The paper estimates genetic diversity and spore production in Zymoseptoria tritici populations, finding high numbers of genotypes and spores per hectare, suggesting adaptive mutations arise from existing variation.
