Podatność genotypów pszenicy ozimej na porażenie przez Mycosphaerella graminicola. (Fuckel) Schroeter [Reaction of winter wheat genotypes to infection by Mycosphaerella graminicola (Fuckel) Schroeter]

Abstract

The response of Polish winter wheat genotypes to M. graminicola (preliminary experiments and cultivar collections) was observed in different regions of Poland. Observations were carried out in 1995–1999. The winter wheat genotypes showed a broad spectrum of reaction to this pathogen. Between 1997 and 1999 the highest degree of infection on winter wheat breeding lines was noted in Kończewice. During this time no genotypes free from infection were observed (preliminary breeding experiments). Cultivars with no symptoms of Septoria tritici blotch (Leszczyńska Wczesna and Żelazna) were found among old genotypes in Słupia Wielka only in earlier experiments (1995–1996). In the years 1997–1999 the winter wheat cultivars were classified into groups on the basis of their response to the pathogen. The degree of infection for the majority cultivars was quite high.
