This project aims to understand how fungal pathogens adapt to overcome crop resistance, focusing on Zymoseptoria tritici, which affects wheat. By analyzing genetic changes in pathogen populations, the research seeks to inform sustainable disease control strategies in agriculture.
Fungal crop pathogens cause severe yield losses and threaten food security.
To prevent epidemics, deploying resistant varieties is currently the major avenue.
However, agricultural ecosystems are highly conducive to the emergence of virulent pathogens and host resistance is rapidly overcome.
The evolutionary mechanisms how virulence is gained on previously resistant hosts remains largely elusive.
Identifying the genetic basis of adaptive evolution of pathogenic fungi in agricultural fields will…
