To evaluate durum breeding lines and commercial cultivars of bread wheat and durum wheat for resistance and tolerance to crown rot (Fusarium pseudograminearum).
Key messages
Durum breeders’ lines Td17/1 and WID902 showed promise of improved resistance/tolerance to crown rot.
Hyperno and AGT Katana performed best of the recently released durum wheat and bread wheat cultivars, respectively.
Gladius expressed significant crown rot symptoms (but not whiteheads) and may contribute to rapid build up of crown rot inoculum.
