I am immensely honored and grateful to the organization committee of the 5th International Septoria Workshop for asking me to deliver this lecture in the opening session. Even though my presentation is very broad and covers many issues, I assure you that I have been involved in breeding for resistance to septoria tritici blotch for at least 25 years, with some remarkable success. In this attempt, I would like to recognize the contribution of Prof. Zahir Eyal, who served as a consultant on septoria issues to CIMMYT in the 1970's and 1980's. Indeed, he and I have some common intellectual roots through Prof. Ralph Caldwell of Purdue University. Prof. Eyal's untimely death and departure from scientific community is a loss to us all. I dedicate this opening lecture to him.
