This study investigates sexual reproduction in Zymoseptoria tritici, finding that late-arriving strains on dead host tissues can mate with earlier colonizers, but such matings contribute little to offspring.

The paper reports the first European occurrence of Uromyces plumbarius on Oenothera lindheimeri, noting its widespread distribution and association with two natural enemies.

This study examines how rainfall affects airborne wheat rust spore concentrations during epidemics, showing rain can amplify or reduce spore levels depending on its type and timing.

The paper develops a bulk phenotyping method to estimate virulence frequency in Zymoseptoria tritici populations using checkerboard microcanopies of wheat NILs and validates it with synthetic populations.

The paper analyzes a thousand-genome panel of Zymoseptoria tritici to trace its global spread and identify genetic changes associated with climatic adaptation.
