In field experiments, symptoms of take-all were observed on plants in all plots. Where soil was treated with 2.5 and 5.0 t. lime per ha the percentage of dead heads was greatly increased. Plants with dead heads were severely lesioned. Liming increased the damage by Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici but yields were not reduced. The control of take-all by crop rotations and controlling grassy weeds in pasture could be a necessary adjunct to liming to obtain maximum yield.
