Fusarium head blight (FHB), caused by the fungus Fusarium graminearum, is an economically devastating disease of wheat worldwide. Fhb1, a widely used genetic source of FHB resistance, originated in East Asia. The recent cloning of Fhb1 opens a new avenue to improve FHB resistance in wheat and potentially other crops.
镰刀菌穗腐病(FHB),由真菌禾谷镰刀菌引起,是一种在全球范围内对小麦具有经济破坏性的疾病。Fhb1 是一种广泛使用的小麦抗 FHB 遗传资源,起源于东亚。Fhb1 的最近克隆为提高小麦和其他潜在作物的 FHB 抗性开辟了新途径。
