Expression Patterns of miR398, miR167, and miR159 in the Interaction between Bread Wheat (<i>Triticum</i> <i>aestivum</i> L.) and Pathogenic <i>Fusarium</i> <i>culmorum</i> and Beneficial <i>Trichoderma</i> Fungi

Bread wheat (<i>Triticum</i> <i>aestivum</i> L.) is an agronomically significant cereal cultivated worldwide. Wheat breeding is limited by numerous abiotic and biotic stresses. One of the most deleterious factors is biotic stress provoked by the <i>Fusarium</i> &l...

Wheat breeding is limited by numerous abiotic and biotic stresses. One of the most deleterious factors is biotic stress provoked by the <i>Fusarium</i> <i>culmorum</i> fungus.
