Scientist pleaded guilty to smuggling #Fusarium #graminearum into #US. But what is it?
It causes a disease in #barley and #wheat called Fusarium head blight, or scab. It can also damage #rice and rot #corn ears and stalks. In severe cases, scab could cut a farm’s yield by 45%!
Its responsible for some of greatest annual crop losses in US. In 2024 extension & research plant pathologists suggested scab reduced US wheat crop by approximately 31 million bushels or roughly 2%.

The FBI has arrested two Chinese #scientists, accused of introducing #fusarium, a fungus harmful to crops, into the country. The case is a continuation of the #economic #war and the pressures on China, which are concentrating on #science and #technology and on the engineers and specialists who promote them.

Not racist or xenophobic. Samples of a #Fusarium species not native to the hemisphere. It *could* absolutely be a non-malicious stupid grad student trick, but it was a dangerous one with incalculable risk.
Crop pathogens make history. https://bird.makeup/users/macfarlanenews/statuses/1930278800731861287
UPDATE: I apparently read wrong about the species: it does exist here and causes Fusarium Head Blight in barley and wheat. Unclear whether this was something special, i.e. why sneak it in? Why not get some here?

The U.S. Attorney's office *maybe* went over the top in claiming to know the motivations. It could also be as simple as overly enthusiastic nerdage and not wanting to have to leave their labs to do research.
But yeah, this was stupid. At the very least the researcher at UofM should be fired.

🚨 First Look! My latest peer-reviewed co-authorship is now online in Phytopathology Journal 🧬🌾
📰 Fusarium avenaceum isolates from pea, wheat, & lentil were tested on these three host crops. Pea-derived isolates were the most "aggressive," which motivated our conclusion that inclusion of pea in a crop rotation can increase the incidence & severity of head blight in wheat.

Winding down my #Fusarium #SpatialImmunity Project, which I started 5 years ago in 🇦🇺. 😥 In 🇦🇺 I created >850 plant lines for the project (which FedEx lost, recovered, 2xflew back-n-forth 🇦🇺/🇩🇪), in my 2 years @mpipz.bsky.social I added another 500 lines. Mostly fluorescent markers for #PlantImmunity.

Historical outbreaks of #CoffeeWilt disease linked to gene transfer from another fungus https://phys.org/news/2024-12-historical-outbreaks-coffee-wilt-disease.html
Horizontal transfers between fungal #Fusarium species contributed to successive outbreaks of #coffee wilt disease: Lily Peck et al. https://journals.plos.org/plosbiology/article?id=10.1371/journal.pbio.3002480
"The #fungus that causes coffee wilt disease repeatedly took up segments of DNA from a related fungal pathogen, which contributed to successive outbreaks of the disease."

This tag team is deadly! Understanding the interaction between #Phytophthora and #Fusarium and its impact on #soybean can help us develop the #crops of the future. Read on!🔓⬇️🎉https://doi.org/10.1111/jipb.13505 …

Asparagus growing in the UK. It seems like I might have problems with phytopthora and fusarium. I planted 12 crowns in spring 2021, only one now survives. I also planted seeds and I am growing on the plants in pots. Are there any other gardeners on here who have dealt with this? Advice on companion planting. I have heavy clay soil in Sheffield, 200m up, cool site. I am using woodchip and compost to lighten soil. https://horticulture.ahdb.org.uk/news/phytophthora-rot-asparagus

This kind of teamwork hardly seems fair!
Results of a 3-year field study reveal that #Fusarium-produced #VitaminB6 promotes loss of #Phytophthora resistance in #soybean.

One approach forward. But it doesn't have to be either or. How about increased crop diversity AND editing? https://www.fastcompany.com/90849025/can-gene-editing-save-the-banana #fungalpathogens #banana #fusarium #technology #geneediting

Europa: Hälfte des Weizens ist mit Pilzgift kontaminiert (scinexx)
#Fusarium-#Pilz macht jährlich Millionen Tonnen Weizen für den menschlichen Verzehr unbrauchbar. Versteckte Kontamination: Spuren giftiger Mycotoxine auch in zugelassenem Weizen können zu einer chronischen, schleichenden Gesundheitsbelastung führen.
