Wheat seed should be treated with fungicide before planting

Where wheat was grown
:following another crop of
wheat or corn.
Prof. Sutton points out that
since much of the seed proal
dined this year is expected
to be infected by several
disease -producing fungi,
seed should be treated with a
broadax etrum .protectant
fungieide before planting
this fall.
Three main types of symp-
toms can be recognized this
year on the wheat heads just
prior to the time of normal
ripening. Numerous dark-
brown to purplish spots on
the gimes of the wheat
heads are indicative of Sepw
toria glume blotch. This
disease spreads to the head
from the leaves. When on the
heads, the casual fungus

become seedborne.
A second common s p -
tom is,premaature ripening of
p its spikelets of the heads,
nen such heads are kept
moist in a plastic bag for a
few days, a pinkish fungus
will appear on the discolored
areas. This disease is head
blight or scab, caused by.
Ftiryoarium graminearurmr
(Gibberalla zeae). The
fungus often produces the
mycotoxins zearalenone and
vornitoxin that are injurious
to farm .animals especially
swine and other
nonruminants. There is a
considerable: risk of
mycotoxin occurrencethis
yyear. The fungus may also

condition is often observed in

stem,where. three 'diseases
