The validated marker panel developed in this study can complement conventional virulence phenotyping and field pathogenomics approaches for surveillance of currently known pathotypes, while continued refinement may accommodate future changes in pathogen populations.
Caragana acanthophylla Kom. is an ecologically important drought-tolerant shrub in Xinjiang, China, but species-specific molecular markers for germplasm characterization remain limited. We sampled 93 individuals from 11 localities representing the currently known distribution of C. acanthophylla in Xinjiang. Three indi...

Wheat stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is a globally destructive disease characterised by rapid virulence evolution. Despite its significance, the genetic basis of avirulence variation at a global scale remains poorly understood. In this study, we integrated virulence phenotypes against...

Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) is a globally important legume crop. However, the scarcity of efficient molecular markers has hindered molecular breeding efforts and the protection of plant breeders’ rights. In this study, we employed double-digest restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (ddRAD-seq) to charact...

Ensuring sustainable wheat production is crucial for food security, particularly in regions facing plant diseases and environmental challenges. In the Middle East, wheat powdery mildew, caused by Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, significantly threatens yields and quality, making it essential to comprehend local pathot...
