Powdery mildew of grape
Erysiphe necator (or Uncinula necator) causes powdery mildew of grapes. It produces common odors such as 1-octen-3-one and (Z)-1,5-octadien-3-one.[3]

| Summary | |
| 3>
Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici, causes powdery mildew of wheat. Powdery mildew of wheat is relatively easy to diagnose[4] due to the characteristic little white spots of cotton like mycelia.[5] These can appear on the upper and lower epidermis of the leaves. As the disease progresses they become a light tan color.[5] Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici is an obligate parasite which means it only grows on living tissue. Though present throughout wheat growing regions, it especially favors the eastern seaboard of the United States as well as coastal regions of the United Kingdom.

| Hosts and Symptoms | |
| 3>
Triticum sp. (wheat) is the only host of Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici.[4] Signs on the foliage of wheat are white, powdery mycelium and conidia.[6] As the disease progresses, the patches turn gray and small dark black or brown cleistothecia form in the mycelium mass.[7] Symptoms progress from lower to upper leaves. Symptoms of powdery mildew are chlorotic areas surrounding the infected areas.[6] The lower leaf surface corresponding to the mycelial mat will also show chlorosis.[7] Lower leaves are commonly the most infected because of higher humidity around them.[4]

| Disease Cycle | |
| 3>
Blumeria graminis f. sp. tritici has a polycyclic life cycle typical of its phylum, Ascomycota. Powdery mildew of wheat overwinters as cleistothecia dormant in plant debris. Under warmer conditions, however, the fungus can overwinter as asexual conidia or mycelium on living host plants. It can persist between seasons most likely as ascospores in wheat debris left in the field. Ascospores are sexual spores produced from the cleistothecia. These spores, as well as conidia, serve as the primary inoculum and are dispersed by wind. Neither spore requires free water to germinate, only high relative humidity.[7] Wheat powdery mildew thrives in cool humid conditions and cloudy weather increases chances of disease. When conidia land on a wheat leaf’s hydrophobic surface cuticle, they release proteins which facilitate active transport of lightweight anions between leaf and fungus even before germination. This process helps Blumeria recognize that it is on the correct host and directs growth of the germ tube.[8] Both ascospores and conidia germinate directly with a germ tube. Conidia can recognize the host plant and within one minute of initial contact, the direction of germ tube growth is determined. The development of appressoria then begins infection following the growth of a germ tube.[9] After initial infection, the fungus produces haustoria inside of the wheat cells and mycelium grows on the plant’s outer surface.[7] Powdery mildew of wheat produces conidia during the growing season as often as every 7 to 10 days.[10] These conidia function as secondary inoculum as growth and reproduction repeat throughout the growing season.

| Environment | |
| 3>
Powdery mildew of wheat thrives in cool, humid climates and proliferates in cloudy weather conditions.[1] The pathogen can also be an issue in drier climates if wheat fields are irrigated.[11] Ideal temperatures for growth and reproduction of the pathogen are between 60 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit with growth ceasing above 77 degrees Fahrenheit. Dense, genetically similar plantings provide opportune conditions for growth of powdery mildew.[7]

| Management | |
| 3>
Controlling the disease involves eliminating conducive conditions as much as possible by altering planting density and carefully timing applications and rates of nitrogen. Since nitrogen fertilizers encourage dense leafy growth, nitrogen should be applied at precise rates, less than 70 pounds per acre, to control decrease severity. Crop rotation with non-host plants is another way to keep mildew infection to a minimum, however the aerial nature of conidia and ascospore dispersal makes it of limited use. Wheat powdery mildew can also be controlled by eliminating the presence of volunteer wheat in agricultural fields as well as tilling under crop residues.[10]
Chemical control is possible with fungicides such as triademefon and propiconazole. Another chemical treatment involves treating wheat with a silicon solution or calcium silicate slag. Silicon helps the plant cells defend against fungal attack by degrading haustoria and by producing callose and papilla. With silicon treatment, epidermal cells are less susceptible to powdery mildew of wheat.[12]
The most effective way to control wheat powdery mildew is through genetic resistance, using R genes (resistance genes) to prevent infection. There are at least 25 loci on the wheat genome that encode resistance to powdery mildew. If the particular variety of wheat has only one loci for resistance, the pathogen may be controlled only for a couple years. If, however, the variety of wheat has multiple loci for resistance, the crop may be protected for around 15 years. Because finding these loci can be difficult and time consuming, molecular markers are used to facilitate combining resistant genomes.[1] One organization working towards identifying these molecular markers is the Coordinated Agricultural Project for Wheat. With these markers established, researchers will then be able to determine the most effective combination of resistance genes.[13]

| Importance | |

Powdery mildew can be found in all wheat growing areas of the United States but usually will be most severe in the east and southeast.[7] It is more common in areas with a humid or semi-arid environment where wheat is grown.[7] Powdery mildew has become a more important disease in some areas because of increased application of nitrogen fertilizer, which favors the development of the fungus.[6] Severe symptoms of powdery mildew can cause stunting of wheat.[6] If unmanaged, this disease can reduce yields significantly by reducing photosynthetic areas and causes non-seed producing tillers.[4] Powdery mildew causes reduced kernel size and lower yields.[10] The sooner powdery mildew begins to develop and how high on the plant it develops by flowering the larger the yield loss.[10] Yield Losses up to 45 percent have been shown in Ohio on susceptible varieties when plants are infected early and weather favors disease.[10]

Sawadaea tulasnei is a fungus that causes powdery mildew on tree leaves. This fungus attacks the leaves of the Acer platanoides (Norway Maple) in North America,[15] and in Great Britain and/or Ireland, Acer palmatum (also known as the Japanese Maple or Smooth Japanese Maple).[16]

| Reproduction | |
| 2>
Powdery mildew fungi reproduce both sexually and asexually. Sexual reproduction is via chasmothecia (formerly cleistothecium), a type of ascocarp. Within each ascocarp are several asci. Over time, ascospores mature and are released to initiate new infections. Conditions necessary for spore maturation differ among species.
