Metabolite profiling of susceptible and resistant wheat (Triticum aestivum) cultivars responding to Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici infection.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) is an economically devasting disease that is prominent in cereal crops such as wheat (Triticum aestivum). The fungal pathogen can cause approximately 30-70% losses in crop productivity and yields. Pst has become difficult to manage due to its ease of transmission through wind dispersal over long distances, and intercontinental dispersal has been previously reported. The ease of transmission has resulted in further destruction because of new and more virulent strains infecting crops previously resistant to a different strain.

Results

In this study, a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry-based untargeted metabolomics approach, in combination with multivariate data analytical tools, was used to elucidate the mechanistic na
