The effect of salicylic acid (SA) on oxalate oxidase and peroxidase activities and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) production in leaf cells has been studied in wheat of the susceptible cultivar Zhnitsa infected by the fungus Septoria nodorum, a pathogen of wheat leaf blotch. The results show that fungal hyphae spread into interstices between mesophyll cells and that infected tissues contain H2O2. Treatment with SA results in enhanced H2O2 production in mesophyll cells, which is due to activation of oxalate oxidase and peroxidase in the cell wall. It is proposed that the modulating effect of SA on oxide reductase activities is involved in the induction of protective response to fungal infection in wheat plants.

We revealed the neglected genetic relationships of resistance for six major wheat diseases and established a haploblock-based catalogue with novel forms of resistance by multi-trait haplotype characterisation. Genetic potential to improve multiple disease resistance was highlighted through haplotype stacking simulations. Wheat production is threatened by numerous fungal diseases, but the potential to breed for multiple disease resistance (MDR) mechanisms is yet to be explored.

Septoria nodorum blotch is an important disease of both durum and hard red spring wheat (HRSW) worldwide. The disease is caused by the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Parastagonospora nodorum when compatible gene-for-gene interactions occur between pathogen-produced necrotrophic effectors (NEs) and corresponding host sensitivity genes. To date, nine sensitivity gene-NE interactions have been identified, but there is little information available regarding their overall frequency in durum and HRSW.

A total of 65 SNPs associated with resistance to tan spot and septoria nodorum blotch were identified in a panel of 180 cultivated emmer accessions through association mapping Tan spot and septoria nodorum blotch (SNB) are foliar diseases caused by the respective fungal pathogens Pyrenophora tritici-repentis and Parastagonospora nodorum that affect global wheat production. To find new sources of resistance, we evaluated a panel of 180 cultivated emmer wheat (Triticum turgidum ssp. dicoccum) accessions for reactions to four P.
