Zymoseptoria tritici, the causal
agent of septoria tritici blotch
Yield losses of up to 50% (Eyal et
al., 1987)
Long pre-symptomatic phase
(latent period)
Active sexual cycle
Septoria tritici blotch (STB) of wheat
(O’Driscoll et al., 2014)
Pre-symptomatic phase (latent period)

Epidermal layer
Mesophyll Layer
Latent period- Last up to 7-28 days
Leaf surface
Lesions bearing asexual pycnidia
Switches to aggressive necrotropic lifestyle
Necrotrophic phase

Pathogen evolution
Septoria tritici blotch (STB) of wheat
(O’Driscoll et al., 2014)
Current control measures
Control almost entirely reliant on
fungicides
European fungicide input - 70%
(>€400 million) (Fones & Gurr 2015)
Fungicide efficacy decreasing year
on year: azoles & SDHIs
(H152R mutation) (Dooley et al., 2016a)
Regulation (EC) No 1107/2009-
prohibition of DMI-based fungicides
Need to shift reliance from fungicides to more durable
resistant varieties
Azole resistance: Ireland
(Kildea, et al., unpublished)

Durable resistant varieties?

Over-reliance on selection based on yield:
Narrow spectrum of resistant genotypes (Arraiano & Brown, 2016)
21 major resistance gene mapped
89 QTL- (Quantitative resistance)
Alternative approach: Broaden genetic
spectrum using wild relatives
Synthetic hexaploids – rich source STB
resistance
Is resistance durable in the field?

Conclusion
What is driving resistance?
Stigg: strong levels of partial phenotypic STB resistance
characterised by a lengthened pre-symptomatic phase or “latent
period”
Once LP concluded, followed by a rate of disease progression
comparable to that observed in susceptible genotype
Genetics that underpin a longer Latent period?
