Mycoses in rye (Secale cereals L.) - Occurrence and threat. Three-year study in the region of southern Poland
Journal of Plant Protection Research 40 (3-4), 237-243
Abstract: In the years 1997-1999 the occurrence of rye diseases in the region of south-western Poland was investigated on rye varieties Warko, Dankowskie Zlote and hybrid rye Marder. Eyespot (Pseudocercosporella herpotrichoides var. acuformis) and brown rust (Puccinia recondita) occured most frequently in the experimental period. Fusarium stem base rot and leaf blight (Fusarium spp.) and leaf scald (Rhynchosporium secalis) were occasionally of considerable importance, but their occurrence was usually less frequent. Variety Marder showed high susceptibility to stem base and leaf diseases, especially to brown rust. When one treatment with fungicides was applied, grain yield increase of cv Marder reached the value of 20,03% in conditions of high infection by pathogens. It was concluded that in the years favourable for the development of diseases on rye, chemical control with broad-spectrum fungicides might be advisable, especially for protecting susceptible varieties.
