Invasive fungal pathogens pose a substantial threat to widely cultivated crop species, owing
to their capacity to adapt to new hosts and new environmental conditions. Gaining insights …

Fungal pathogens cause devastating disease in crops. Understanding the evolutionary
origin of pathogens is essential to the prediction of future disease emergence and the …

Pyrenophora teres f. teres causes net form net blotch of barley and is an economically
important pathogen throughout the world. However, P. teres f. teres is lacking in the genomic …

Pyrenophora teres is the causal agent of net blotch, the most devastating foliar disease of
barley. In nature, net blotch is seen in two forms, net form net blotch, caused by P. teres f …

Pyrenophora teres f. teres, the causal agent of net form net blotch (NFNB) of barley, is a
destructive pathogen in barley-growing regions throughout the world. Typical yield losses …

Net form net blotch disease, caused by Pyrenophora teres f. teres, results in significant yield
losses to barley industries. Up-to-date knowledge of the genetic diversity and structure of …

Background Pathogens evolve in an arms race, frequently evolving virulence that defeats
resistance genes in their hosts. Infection of multiple hosts may accelerate this virulence …

Background Pyrenophora teres f. teres is a necrotrophic fungal pathogen and the cause of
one of barley's most important diseases, net form of net blotch. Here we report the first …

Net form net blotch (NFNB), caused by the fungal pathogen Pyrenophora teres f. teres, is an
important foliar disease present in all barley-producing regions of the world. This fungus is a …

Key message Pathogen and host genetics were used to uncover an inverse gene-for-gene
interaction where virulence genes from the pathogen Pyrenophora teres f. maculata target …
