- Intervention effect Potassium chloride reduced affected leaf 2 area by about 50% in 1997.
- Intervention effect Potassium chloride reduced affected flag and penultimate leaf area by about one-third in 1998.
- Intervention effect Potassium chloride produced no significant yield increase.
- Intervention effect Epoxiconazole reduced septoria affected leaf 4 area relative to controls.
- Intervention effect Chlorothalonil was ineffective against disease development.

- Intervention effect Polyethylene glycol produced similar reductions in affected leaf area in 1998.
- Intervention effect Potassium chloride inhibited pathogen conidial germination on wheat.
- Intervention effect Polyethylene glycol inhibited pathogen conidial germination on wheat.
- Mechanism The authors suggest osmotic effects may explain potassium chloride control.
