This chapter reviews current research on the main fungal diseases affecting barley. It first reviews what we know about the mecanisms of barley genetic resistance to fungal pathogens. The chapter then focuses on the description of major fungal pathogens effecting barley production, new insights into their mechanisms of virulence and implications for achieving sustainable resistance to these important pathogens. The chapter reviews current knowledge about biotrophic foliar diseases: stem rust, leaf rust, stripe rust, powdery mildew. It then discusses necrotrophic diseases: spot blotch, net blotch, ramularia leaf spot, septoria speckled leaf blotch, scald and fusarium head blight. The chapter finally discusses barley stripe.
