Drechslera teres (D. teres) is an ascomycete, responsible for net blotch, the most serious barley disease causing an important economic impact. The cell wall is a crucial structure for the growth and development of fungi. Thus, understanding cell wall structure, composition and biosynthesis can help in designing new strategies for pest management. Despite the severity and economic impact of net blotch, this is the first study analyzing the cell wall-related genes in D. teres. We have identified key genes involved in the synthesis/remodeling of cell wall polysaccharides, namely chitin, β-(1,3)-glucan and mixed-linkage glucan synthases, as well as endo/exoglucanases and a mitogen-activated protein kinase. We have also analyzed the differential expression of these genes in D. teres spores and in the mycelium after cultivation on different media, as well as in the presence of Paraburkholderia phytofirmans strain PsJN, a plant growth-promoting bacterium (PGPB). The targeted gene expression analysis shows higher gene expression in the spores and in the mycelium with the application of PGPB. Besides analyzing key cell-wall-related genes, this study also identifies the most suitable reference genes to normalize qPCR results in D. teres, thus serving as a basis for future molecular studies on this ascomycete.
