Priority actions for Fusarium head blight resistance in durum wheat: Insights from the wheat initiative.

Fusarium head blight (FHB), mainly caused by Fusarium graminearum and Fusarium culmorum, is a major wheat disease. Significant efforts have been made to improve resistance to FHB in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum), but more work is needed for durum wheat (Triticum turgidum spp. durum).

The Mechanisms of Developing Fungicide Resistance in Causing Fusarium Head Blight and Fungicide Resistance Management.

Fusarium head blight (FHB), primarily caused by , is one of the economically significant diseases in small grains. FHB causes severe damage to wheat production and grain quality. Several management strategies have been developed to control FHB, and chemical control through fungicides plays a significant role.

Molecular Insights into the Reproductive Patterns and Genetic Structure of Wheat Stripe Rust in Ili, Xinjiang.

Wheat stripe rust, caused by f. sp. (), is a globally significant fungal disease that seriously threatens wheat yield, particularly in China.

ALDH1A3 is the switch that determines the balance of ALDH and CD24CD44 cancer stem cells, EMT-MET, and glucose metabolism in breast cancer.

Plasticity is an inherent feature of cancer stem cells (CSCs) and regulates the balance of key processes required at different stages of breast cancer progression, including epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) versus mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition (MET), and glycolysis versus oxidative phosphorylation. Understanding the key factors that regulate the switch between these processes could lead to novel therapeutic strategies that limit tumor progression. We found that aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A3 (ALDH1A3) regulates these cancer-promoting processes and the abundance of the two distinct breast CSC populations defined by high ALDH activity and CD24CD44 cell surface expression.
