Fusarium head blight (FHB) on small-grain cereals is one of the
most devastating diseases. Several species can cause head blight,
though Fusarium graminearum is the predominant pathogen in most
regions. F. graminearum is one of the most intensively studied
fungal plant pathogens. This book presents the current state of
knowledge regarding mycological aspects that make wheat-Fusarium
interaction, such as hyphal growth, morphogenesis in germinating
spores, visualization of enzymatic hydrolysis, production of
mycotoxins, inhibition of the hyphal growth by antagonist
microorganisms, use of natural substances or by modification of the
host resistance, as well as genetic analysis and expression of
genes that regulate the infection. Fungal ecology and epidemiology
will also be discussed. Just as the analysis of environmental
requirements for the establishment of the disease, the use of
forecasts of disease risk with meteorological base and integrated
management and control. This book includes the study of disease in
Latin America, therefore will be of interest to researchers who are
working on the issue, as for those who are interested in knowing
about the disease.
