Mutations in a barley cytochrome P450 gene enhances pathogen induced programmed cell death and cutin layer instability

G. Ameen, S. Solanki, L. Sager-Bittara, J. Richards, P. Tamang, T. Friesen, R. Brueggeman

This paper identifies a barley cytochrome P450 gene, Nec3, that regulates serotonin biosynthesis, PCD, and cutin layer stability in response to pathogen infection.

Local adaptation drives the diversification of effectors in the fungal wheat pathogen Parastagonospora nodorum in the United States

J. Richards, E. Stukenbrock, J. Carpenter, Z. Liu, C. Cowger, J. Faris, T. L. Friesen

This study uses whole genome resequencing of 197 Parastagonospora nodorum isolates to show that local adaptation drives effector gene diversification and genomic selection in response to host resistance/susceptibility in U.S. wheat production regions.
