Wheat root and crown rot is an economically important disease which causes yield losses of up to 50%. Agents of wheat root and crown rot comprise a complex of Fusarium, Oculimacula, Gaeumannomyces and Rhizoctonia pathogens. The analyses of environmental factors effects on the infection by wheat crown rot agents are scarce in Serbia and worldwide. This study was carried out in Mačva region of Serbia in the growing seasons of 2013/2014 and 2016/2017. The study found a significant effect of the growing season, interaction between the growing season and location, as well as winter temperatures on the occurrence of wheat crown rot. The results showed combined action of biotic and abiotic factors on the occurrence of crown rot, which calls for developing more efficient measures to control these pathogens.
