The paper presents a pipeline for longitudinal plant disease phenotyping using time-series imaging, enabling objective quantification of disease progression in wheat rusts.

This study shows that loss of PMR4 callose synthase in Arabidopsis and Brassica napus leads to broad-spectrum resistance against clubroot and powdery mildew, independent of salicylic acid.

This study compares alignment strategies for dual-genome RNA-seq data from wheat and Fusarium, finding that combo-genome alignment improves mapping quality.

The paper introduces DEFE, a method to extract differential expression patterns from RNA-seq data, and applies it to identify genes associated with wheat resistance to Fusarium head blight.
