Metabolome and Mycobiome of Subspecies Differing in Susceptibility to Brown Rust and Powdery Mildew Are Diverse.

The present study demonstrated the differences in the seed metabolome and mycobiome of two Coss accessions with different resistance to brown rust and powdery mildew. We hypothesized that the seeds of resistant accession k-1958 ssp. can contain a larger number of metabolites with antifungal activity compared with the seeds of susceptible ssp k-340, which will determine differences in the seed fungal community.
