The outer epidermis and vasculature of leaf sheath were, at different disease stages, identified as prominent sites of pathogen migration and wheat protection. graminearum showed a route of stem infection that was consistent with observations made by microscopy. Detected mycotoxin compounds secreted by F. Histological information was used to identify disease relevant tissues and to assist the interpretation of molecular images. To scope the functional, temporal and local aspects of FRR disease spread, metabolic changes were simultaneous visualized in diseased and healthy stem bases of the resistant cultivar Florence-Aurore at 10, 14 and 21 days after root inoculation. graminearum interaction at the root–shoot junction, which is a crucial line of defense against a pathogen that can invade all distal plant parts.
ResultsĪtmospheric-pressure (AP)-SMALDI-MS imaging was combined with optical microscopy to study wheat- F. As a molecular camera, mass spectrometry (MS) imaging combines label-free and multiplex metabolite profiling with histopathology. However, the molecular response of wheat to Fusarium root rot (FRR) infection and systemic spread is still unknown. We recently showed its ability to systemically colonize wheat via root infection.
Fungal pathogens like Fusarium graminearum can cause severe yield losses and mycotoxin contamination of food and feed worldwide.
