Book excerpt: Wheat blast (WB) is an economically important disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae pathotype Triticum (MoT) pathogen. It may cause up to 100% yield loss, concerning global food security. The epidemiology of WB, seed transmission mechanisms of MoT, and its biocontrol are poorly understood. In order to study the epidemiology of WB, two contrasting wheat cultivars (susceptible Sumai 3 and resistant Milan) were used for greenhouse experiments. The localization of MoT in seeds was performed using confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and the quantification of MoT biomass was done by quantit...
