Fusarium langsethiae pathogenicity and aggressiveness towards oats and wheat in wounded and unwounded in vitro detached leaf assays (2008)
Journal Article

In vitro detached leaf assays involving artificial inoculation of wounded and unwounded oat and wheat leaves were used to investigate the potential pathogenicity and aggressiveness of F. langsethiae, which was linked recently to the production of typ...

The control of chlorophyll catabolism and the status of yellowing as a biomarker of leaf senescence (2008)
Journal Article

The pathway of chlorophyll catabolism during leaf senescence is known in a fair amount of biochemical and cell biological detail. In the last few years, genes encoding a number of the catabolic enzymes have been characterized, including the key ring‐...

Effect of timing of fungicide application on the development of fusarium head blight and the accumulation of deoxynivalenol (DON) in winter wheat grain (2008)
Journal Article

The effect of different timings of fungicide applications on Fusarium head blight severity and mycotoxin accumulation in wheat grain was investigated in two field experiments. The fungicides metconazole, tebuconazole, azoxystrobin and mixtures of met...

Development of a Genomic Microsatellite Library in Perennial Ryegrass (Lolium perenne) and its Use in Trait Mapping (2008)
Journal Article

Background and Aims Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) is one of the key forage and amenity grasses throughout the world. In the UK it accounts for 70 % of all agricultural land use with an estimated farm gate value of £6 billion per annum. However...

Identifying genetic components controlling fertility in the outcrossing grass species perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) by quantitative trait loci analysis and comparative genetics (2008)
Journal Article

Mutational load and resource allocation factors and their effects on limiting seed set were investigated in ryegrass by comparative mapping genomics and quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis in two perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) mapping familie...
