Popis: | The development of stem rust epidemie was studied in a test over two years by the modified Center-pivot method in 17 winter wheat genotypes of differing resistance. The spreading of epidemic depended on the level of the disease measured in cultivars just at the spreader plot. This was stable in the years of observation, only the severity of the disease differed in the two years. Tolerance could be identified at various levels of susceptibility and resistance. Tolerance is a useful trait, being independent from resistance, but can not replace the race specific or other types of resistance. A direct selection for tolerance is not easy, but the selection for not shrivelling grains may result also in toierant genotypes. Identification of tolerance needs tests over several years. |
