The SEPTOWHEAT project investigates the genetic basis of host resistance and pathogen virulence in wheat to combat Septoria tritici blotch, a significant disease affecting wheat yields. By utilizing advanced genomics, the project aims to breed resistant wheat varieties and reduce reliance on fungicides.
Increasing agricultural sustainability has become more than ever a priority.
In this sense, wheat plays a central role in EU agriculture as a major crop, and controlling yield losses due to diseases can be a serious bottleneck for agricultural sustainability.
Septoria tritici blotch (STB) caused by Zymoseptoria tritici, is a globally occurring fungal disease that causes severe yield losses on wheat and is the source of a massive fungicide applications in the EU.
Furthermore, Z. tritici populatio…
