Title
CEREAL SMUT RACES AND THEIR VARIABILITY
W. J. Cherewick Canadian Journal of Plant Science 1958. doi:10.4141/cjps58-075
Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Smut collections more often contained mixed or heterozygous strains than pure strains.
- Intervention effect Repeated passage through selected hosts occasionally yielded a stable smut race.
- Observation Most variable smut cultures remained variable after ten selection generations.
- Observation Covered smut of oats was least variable, with covered barley smut, loose oat smut, and false loose barley smut progressively more variable.
- Observation No stable race was isolated from flower-infecting loose smut of wheat or barley.
