Other claims from this paper (13)
- Association Grain damage depended significantly on cultivar by growth-stage interaction.
- Association Fungal incidence depended significantly on cultivar by growth-stage interaction.
- Intervention effect Moisture at dough or milk stage generally increased fungal incidence and grain damage.
- Observation Alternaria frequency increased from dough stage onward.
- Observation Epicoccum frequency increased from dough stage onward.
- Association Fusarium incidence correlated negatively with seed germination and positively with discoloration.
- Association B. sorghico/a incidence correlated negatively with seed germination.
- Association Fusarium incidence correlated positively with grain discoloration.
- Association B. sorghico/a incidence correlated positively with grain discoloration.
- Association B. sorghicola incidence correlated negatively with thousand-grain mass.
- Intervention effect F. thapsinum inoculation at soft dough reduced germination by 46% compared with anthesis.
- Intervention effect Phoma sorghina inoculation at soft dough reduced germination by 46% compared with anthesis.
- Recommendation The authors suggested disease control during late milk to soft dough for susceptible cultivars.
