Blackleg of canola (Brassica napus) causes economic losses worldwide. Populations of the
causal agent, Leptosphaeria maculans, have a great propensity for change under selection …

Among the Brassica oilseeds, canola (Brassica napus) is the most economically significant
globally. However, its production can be limited by blackleg disease, caused by the fungal …

The study of the relationship between plants and phytopathogenic fungi is one of the most
rapidly moving fields in the plant sciences, the findings of which have contributed to the …

Recent advances in genomics have led to a greater understanding of blackleg disease of
canola, caused by the fungus Leptosphaeria maculans. Genome sequences are available …

Brassica napus (oilseed rape, canola) seedling resistance to Leptosphaeria maculans, the
causal agent of blackleg (stem canker) disease, follows a gene‐for‐gene relationship. The …

Interactions between Leptosphaeria maculans, causal agent of stem canker of oilseed rape,
and its Brassica hosts are models of choice to explore the multiplicity of 'gene‐for‐gene' …

The hemibiotrophic fungal pathogen Leptosphaeria maculans is the causal agent of
blackleg disease in Brassica napus (canola, oilseed rape) and causes significant loss of …

Leptosphaeria maculans, the causal agent of blackleg disease, interacts with Brassica
