Dr. Osman A.M. Ir. pub 8planthealth 7plantbreed Spring wheat, Fusarium, seedling blight, cultivar differences, growth rates Dear Editor, this paper would also fit under "arable crops" or "crop health management" if I remember the subject names wright. Thanks very much for considering our subject, Kind regards, Bart Timmermans Fusarium spp. present on spring wheat seeds can infect seedlings and cause reduced plant densities and higher wheat infestations. In the current project, variation between commercially available spring wheat cultivars in their tolerance to Fusarium seedling blight was investigated in a pot and a field trail. Additionally, initial growth rates of cultivars were measured to investigate possible relations with tolerance. Preliminary analysis shows presence of tolerance differences between the spring wheat cultivars in the pot and field experiment. This difference was relatively robust (experiment x cultivar interaction was not significant). Preliminary analysis also showed a relation between tolerance and initial growth rates of cultivars in the field experiment. The presence of robust differences in tolerance and relations with growth rates of commercially available cultivars form good possibilities for future breeding. 2008 published public 8346 1 11945 1 source en public
