Zinc exerts antifungal activity against <i>Fusarium pseudograminearum</i> by interfering with <scp>ROS</scp> accumulation regulated by transcription factor <scp>FpYap1</scp>
Our findings suggest that Zn is not only a necessary nutritional supplement for plants but also a promising candidate for FCR management. The use of Zn as an alternative to chemical fungicides could provide an environmentally friendly approach to controlling this serious disease. © 2025 Society of Chemical Industry.
