@article{(Open Science Index):https://publications.waset.org/pdf/16399, title = {The Effectiveness of Tebuconazole and Chitosan in Inhibiting the Growth of Fusarium Species on Winter Wheat Grain under Field Conditions}, author = {Urszula Wachowska and Anna Daria Stasiulewicz-Paluch and Katarzyna Kucharska}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {A three-year field experiment (2010-2012) was conducted to determine the abundance of epiphytic and endophytic filamentous fungi colonizing the grain of winter wheat cv. Bogatka. Wheat spikes were protected with tebuconazole or chitosan at the watery ripe stage. Untreated plants served as control. Tebuconazole exerted an inhibitory effect primarily on F. culmorum and F. graminearum, and its effectiveness was determined by the pressure from pathogens that infected wheat spikes during the growing season. Chitosan did not suppress the growth of Fusarium species and Alternaria alternata. }, journal = {International Journal of Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering}, volume = {7}, number = {7}, year = {2013}, pages = {626 - 629}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/16399}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/79}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 79, 2013}, }
