Wheat blast disease: a deadly and baffling fungal foe
Wheat is a pillar for global food security, providing 20 percent of protein and calories consumed worldwide and up to 50 percent in developing countries. However, widespread cultivation of wheat has also fostered numerous wheat parasites that can infect and lay waste to entire farming regions. One of the most fearsome and intractable in recent decades is wheat blast, caused by the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae.
