Abstract:
Our manuscript reports the successful application of synchrotron‐based X‐ray imaging methods to study the wheat– Fusarium interaction, thus providing an understanding of the structural role of the spike in Type‐II resistance, which is defined as resistance to pathogen spread. The major merit associated with our manuscript is in terms of technical advancement because the methods and approaches/algorithms described can be applied to the study of plant biology, such as host–pathogen interactions or developmental changes in plant tissues. Our study is one of very few to study host–pathogen interactions and the first to be applied to the wheat– Fusarium interaction. It demonstrated the use of X‐ray imaging techniques for direct observation of the host–pathogen interaction without destructive sampling.
