<i>Fusarium</i> head blight (FHB), caused by <i>Fusarium graminearum</i>, occurs mainly on developing wheat seeds, which are important energy sinks. Leaf cutting (removing a portion of the energy sources) could have an effect on the damage caused by <i>F. graminearum</i>. To determine the effects of leaf cutting on disease development, photosynthesis parameters, and yield components between resistant and susceptible wheat genotypes, the wheat FHB-resistant line L693 and FHB-susceptible line L661, which have similar genetic backgrounds, were used in this study. Different numbers of leaves were removed before inoculation with <i>F. graminearum</i>, and photosynthesis parameters, including the net photosynthesis rate (<i>Pn</i>), stomatal conductance (<i>Gs</i>), and intercellular CO<sub>2</sub> concentration (<i>Ci</i>), were measured at various time points both before and after <i>F. graminearum</i> infection.
