Summary: | The Fusarium species damage potential to germinating spring barley kernels was evaluated in the work. The most damaging species during germination of barley seeds are species in following downward order: M. nivale, F. culmorum, F. poae. F. culmorum reduced the germination activity in less extent as M. nivale, the infection of sprouts was higher in F. culmorum. The occurrence and role of tested Fusarium species during germination is important for chemical and biological treatment of infested seeds. The lowest pathogenicity and low damaging potential of F. poae is notable, because the species occurs in the barley seeds very frequently. According to these results the F. poae is not damaging species for the seeds as a pathogen, only as a mycotoxin producer. |
