TOPICS
ABSTRACT
Fusarium head blight (FHB) incidence, and colonisation of grain by
Fusarium
species on winter wheat grown in organic,
integrated, and conventional systems as well as in monoculture, were studied locally in Poland, from 2002 to 2010. Fusarium head
blight incidence differed throughout the study years. It was found to occur the most where rainfall was highest and where rainfall
was the most prolonged before, during, and after flowering of wheat.
Fusarium head blight incidence was generally less on wheat
grown organically than on wheat grown in other systems. In some years, FHB was noted more in monocultures than in other systems.
Fusarium poae
was the most common species of FHB populations in wheat kernels, followed by
F. avenaceum
and
F. tricinctum.
Other species which occurred more rarely or sporadically were:
F. culmorum,
F. equiseti, F. graminearum, F. langsethiae, F. oxysporum, and
F. sporotrichioides. There were found to be significant effects of the cropping system on grain colonisation by
Fusarium
in some years.
There was a positive correlation between FHB incidence and number of kernels colonised and damaged by
Fusarium, in all four systems. Inferences were drawn concerning the effects of different procedures in different production systems and the possible value for
controlling FHB.
