Abstract
Triadimenol seed treatment of irrigated spring wheat delayed symptom development of take-all caused by Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici. Depending on the inoculum level and the dose of triadimenol on the seed, the onset of aboveground symptoms was delayed up to 53 days compared with the untreated control. Lesions on seminal roots and the subcrown internodes of 5-wk-old plants were reduced 50% by a triadimenol seed treatment at a rate of 0.22 ml a.i/kg of seed. Yield increases over the untreated controls were significant in both infested plots and a naturally infested commercial field.
