Twelve Polish winter triticale cultivars and 14 doubled haploid lines (DH) (derived from the cv. Lasko × line SZD 366 hybrids) were inoculated with Fusarium avenaceum isolate ATCC 64451, mycotoxin moniliformin (MON) producer to evaluate their susceptibility to Fusarium head blight (FHB). Chemical analysis revealed MON accumulation in kernels of all inoculated cultivars in three consecutive years with the following averages and ranges: 1.50 mg/kg (0.47–2.67 mg/kg) in 1996, 2.63 mg/kg (0.11–8.14 mg/kg) in 1997 and 0.25 mg/kg (0.07–0.47 mg/kg) in 1998. Cultivar Malno kernels accumulated a low level of MON in all 3 years of the experiment. In most of the genotypes examined the reaction to the pathogen and MON content changed significantly from season to season. DH lines accumulated on average 2.62 and 0.85 mg/kg of MON in 1997 and 1998, respectively. Yield parameter reductions (1000 kernel weight, kernel number per head and kernel weight per head) were higher in 1997 than in 1998. The correlation coefficient for MON content/Fusarium damaged kernels percentage was 0.539 in cultivars and 0.548 in the DH lines. This is the first report of FHB of a segregating population in triticale.
