Barley yellow dwarf is a threat to cereal crops worldwide. Barley yellow dwarf virus-PAS (BYDV-PAS) was detected for the first time in Poland in 2015, then in 2019. In the spring of 2021, in several locations in Poland, winter wheat and barley plants with dwarfism and leaf yellowing were collected. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction results revealed BYDV presence in 47 samples and excluded wheat streak mosaic virus infections. Next, immuno-captured polymerase chain reactions confirmed only one case of co-infection caused by BYDV and wheat dwarf virus. Moreover, restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis showed that BYDV-PAS was predominant. The preliminary results were confirmed using sequencing. Infected cereal plants originated mainly from northwestern Poland. The complete coding sequence of coat protein (CP) and a fragment of RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) genes of 14 Polish isolates were determined and deposited in the GenBank database. The nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of local isolates were compared with others reported to date, indicating their high similarity, from 75.4% to 99.5% and from 81.1% to 100% nucleotide sequence identity, in RdRp and CP, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis, based on the CP gene, revealed the presence of 3 main groups. The Polish isolates clustered together within the Ia group.

Wheat is one of the most important food crop cultivated across the globe which ensures sustainability and food security to massive world's population, but its production is threatened by both biotic factors like rust (caused by species) and abiotic stresses such as salinity. In this study, 41 salt-tolerant wheat lines were screened for rust resistance at both seedling and adult plant stages. Rust resistance genes were characterized through gene matching technique and molecular markers analysis.

The interactions among viruses and host plants are complex and fascinating because these organisms interact with and adapt to each other continuously. Many plant transcription factors play important roles in plant growth and development and in the resistance to viral infection. To facilitate the infection of plants, some viral proteins typically target and inhibit the function of plant transcription factors.

Plant-virus-host interaction is a complex process involving several players. A constant arms race between the hosts and viruses has led to their co-evolution. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are important signaling molecules that regulate plant growth, development, and stress responses.
