Wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) is the world's second largest crop and Brazil has taken second place in wheat production in South America. However, productivity in this crop can be limited due to occurrence of some diseases, one of which, wheat blast, caused by the Magnaporthe grisea fungus, has caused large productivity losses that can reach 72% depending on the time of infection. With the expansion of wheat crops to other Brazilian regions such as the Midwest, the fungus has been settling in and

The soilborne mosaic in wheat is a viral disease whose negative effects on wheat production have become more frequent in several wheat regions in southern Brazil. This disease can reduce productivity by 50% if susceptible cultivars are sown in areas with inoculum and favorable environment conditions. In Brazil, the common mosaic is attributed to Soil-borne wheat mosaic virus (SBWMV) and also to Wheat spindle streak virus (WSSMV), both transmitted by Polymyxa graminis, plasmodioforomiceto inhabit
