Background: Yellow (stripe) rust of wheat, caused by Puccinia striiformis, is a serious disease that results in great economic losses. This study aimed to investigate the variation in plant responses in three wheat cultivars with different resistance levels against yellow rust.
Results: The highest disease severity was recorded for cv.

Flutianil, a fungicide effective only on powdery mildew, was previously reported to affect the host cell's haustorial formation and nutrient absorption. Studies were conducted to investigate flutianil's primary site of action on morphology using transmission electron microscope (TEM) observation and RNA sequencing (RAN-seq) techniques. TEM observation revealed that flutianil caused the extra-haustorial matrix and fungal cell wall to be obscured, without remarkable changes of other fungal organelles.

The leaf outer epidermal cell wall acts as a barrier against pathogen attack and desiccation, and as such is covered by a cuticle, composed of waxes and the polymer cutin. Cutin monomers are formed by the transfer of fatty acids to glycerol by glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferases, which facilitate their transport to the surface. The extent to which cutin monomers affect leaf cell wall architecture and barrier properties is not known.
