Identification of high-yielding adapted wheat germplasm with moderate resistance against the crown rot fungus Fusarium Culmorum under controlled and field conditions in Turkey

By: Contributor(s): Material type: ArticleArticleLanguage: English Publication details: Australia : Organising Committee of the 1st International Crown Rot Workshop, 2012.Subject(s): In: Proceedings of First International Crown Rot Workshop for Wheat Improvement p. 58-59Summary: The Soil Borne Pathogen Program in Turkey receives annually about 300 spring wheat germplasm lines from the International Maize and Wheat Improvement Centre (CIMMYT) in Mexico and about 800 lines of winter wheat from the International Winter Wheat Improvement Program (IWWIP) in Turkey, which are screened against dryland crown rot caused by Fusarium culmorum. Spring wheat (SW) and winter wheat (WW) germplasm lines are screened under growth room, greenhouse, and field conditions. After screening, the best perfom1ing materials are further tested in the following season with all three methods. Approximately l 00 germplasm lines with moderate resistance (MR) to .F. culmorum were screened by the Soil Borne Pathogen Program (SBP) at CIMMYT Turkey and 35 gem1plasm lines have been sent to collaborators representing 6 countries across West Asia and North Africa to be screened for crown rot using their methodologies in 2012/2013. Furthemore, some of this germplasm is also selected based on agronomic performance, pedigree and reactions to other soil borne pathogens including root lesion nematodes. The most promising of these materials are sent to Australia as part of an ongoing collaboration with GRDC and the Australian wheat community through the CAIGE alliance.
