This comprehensive collection presents four peer-reviewed reviews on the topic of septoria tritici blotch (STB) in cereals. The first chapter delves into various management strategies for STB, encompassing the use of fungicides, marker-assisted breeding for enhanced resistance, and research into the molecular mechanisms underlying host-pathogen interactions in STB. The second chapter focuses on the primary fungal diseases affecting barley, encompassing biotrophic foliar diseases like stem rust and powdery mildew, as well as necrotrophic diseases such as STB and fusarium head blight. It also explores the implications for sustainable resistance to these pathogens. The third chapter explores advancements in understanding the epidemiology of STB in major cereal crops, including a review of the taxonomy and life cycle of the causative pathogen, Zymoseptoria tritici. Additionally, it assesses the economic impact of STB and discusses recent research on genetic resistance loci and breeding strategies to develop durable resistance while minimizing grain yield losses.

The first chapter reviews the various methods for managing septoria tritici blotch (STB), from the use of fungicides to marker-assisted breeding for increased resistance to STB. It also surveys research on the molecular basis of host-pathogen interactions in STB.

The second chapter reviews current research on the main fungal diseases affecting barley, focusing on biotrophic foliar diseases, such as stem rust and powdery mildew, as well as necrotrophic diseases, such as septoria tritici blotch and fusarium head blight. The chapter also discusses the implications for achieving sustainable resistance to the pathogens responsible for these diseases.

The third chapter addresses advances in understanding the epidemiology of septoria tritici blotch in the major cereal crops. The chapter also reviews the taxonomy and life cycle of Zymoseptoria tritici - the cause of septoria tritici blotch, as well as the economic impact of the pathogen.

The final chapter reviews recent research on genetic resistance loci and breeding strategies based on both conventional and biotechnology-based breeding approaches to achieve durable resistance to septoria tritici blotch infection, while simultaneously minimizing the risk of grain yield losses.
