The Effectiveness of Tebuconazole and Chitosan in Inhibiting the Growth of Fusarium Species on Winter Wheat Grain under Field Conditions
A three-year field experiment (2010-2012) was
conducted to determine the abundance of epiphytic and endophytic
filamentous fungi colonizing the grain of winter wheat cv. Bogatka.
Wheat spikes were protected with tebuconazole or chitosan at the
watery ripe stage. Untreated plants served as control. Tebuconazole
exerted an inhibitory effect primarily on F. culmorum and F.
graminearum, and its effectiveness was determined by the pressure
from pathogens that infected wheat spikes during the growing season.
Chitosan did not suppress the growth of Fusarium species and
Alternaria alternata.
