Record of sources of resistance to Fusarium head blight
1995
Golzar, H.
Considerable improvement in the search for resistance cultivars had been achieved in recent years. Wheat cultivars and advanced lines were evaluated at a Fusarium nursery for sources of resistance to scab during 1993-94. Scattering scabby wheat kernels in the field to increase primary inoculum and application of spores suspension were carried out during the flowering until milky stage of growth. In addition selected material was inclusted by injection of conidial suspension into a single floret in the middle of spike (20 per cultivar). Infection rating and incidence of diseased heads were carried out by method of Wang Yu Zhong et al (1987). Results indicated that three chines wheat cultivars Wang Shui- bai, Sumai no. 3 and Ning 7840 were suitable sources of resistance to scab and available for cross breeding program
