Expression Patterns of miR398, miR167, and miR159 in the Interaction between Bread Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and Pathogenic Fusarium culmorum and Beneficial Trichoderma Fungi.

ABSTRACT: Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is an agronomically significant cereal cultivated worldwide. Wheat breeding is limited by numerous abiotic and biotic stresses. One of the most deleterious factors is biotic stress provoked by the Fusarium culmorum fungus. This pathogen is a causative agent of Fusarium root rot and Fusarium head blight. Beneficial fungi Trichoderma atroviride and T. cremeum are strong antagonists of mycotoxigenic Fusarium spp. These fungi promote plant growth and enhance their tolerance of negative environmental conditions. The aim of the study was to determine and compare the spatial (in above- and underground organs) and temporal (early: 6 and 22 hpi; and late: 5 and 7 dpi reactions) expression profiles of three
