Under greenhouse conditions, incorporating ground straw in the soil at rates between 2,240 and 8,970 kg/ha reduced the emergence of alfalfa (Medicago media Pers. cv. Beaver) significantly (P < 0.05) and bromegrass (Bromus inermis Leyss cv. Magna) slightly, but had no effect on barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Conquest). Rape (Brassica napus L. cv. Target and B. campestris L. cv. Echo) straws were more damaging than wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Manitou) straw. Symptoms of severe nitrogen deficiency appeared early in the growth of barley where straw had been added to the soil. The effect on tillering varied. In one experiment tillers were smaller, in one tillers were larger; but in both, total leaf area produced was much less where 8,970 kg/ha of straw had been added to the soil. Bromegrass showed the same effects but to a lesser degree, probably because of slower growth requiring a smaller supply of nitrogen. Alfalfa growth was apparently unaffected. There was no evidence that the straw of either rapeseed species was more deleterious than wheat straw to crop growth after emergence. It is concluded that straw incorporated in soil affected barley and bromegrass growth by reducing the availability of nitrogen.

Herbage Yield

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa), rape (Brassica napus) and barley (Hordeum vulgare) were grown in a growth chamber with and without sulphur (S) on surface samples (0–15 cm) of 17 eastern Canadian prairie soils. The soil varied in pedological origin and were divided into three groups based on their total nitrogen:total sulphur (N:S) ratios. Herbage yield of alfalfa (full bud) and rape (flowering) were highly correlated (P < 0.01) with soil (N:S)s ratios and soil SO4-S, while for barley (shot blade) the relationships were significant [Formula: see text]. Herbage yields of the three crops were also significantly correlated [Formula: see text] with plant (N:S)p ratios. Soil (N:S) ratio was considered the best predictor of herbage yield because it is more stable over time than soil SO4-S and because plant (N:S)p ratio only indicates a need for future fertilization. The highest yields and S and N composition of plant tissues were obtained on soils with SO4-S concentrations greater than 12 mg kg−1 and an (N:S)s ratio of approximately 6. These soils had sufficient S to meet the requirements of all three crops. Addition of S had no effect on herbage yield but did increase S uptake. Results indicated that soils with (N:S)s ratio of 9 and SO4-S concentration of 7 mg kg−1, may have sufficient S to meet the requirement of barley but not alfalfa and rape. However, soils with higher (N:S)s ratios and lower SO4-S content were deficient in S for all crops. Barley was the most responsive to applied S of the three crops, although it had the lowest concentration of S (0.15 mg S g−1 dry herbage) and highest plant (N:S)p ratio (16) at its highest yield. Rape was more responsive to applied S than alfalfa but the concentration of S in the herbage of both crops at their highest yields were similar, 0.27 and 0.26 mg S g−1 dry herbage, respectively. Both crops also had lower (N:S)p ratios than barley at the highest yield (14 (alfalfa) and 12 (rape)), reflecting their greater S uptake.

Control of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) at Brandon and Lacombe, and wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) at Regina and Scott, in Canola (Brassica campestris L. and Brassica napus L.) with postemergence (three- to four-leaf) applications of BAS 9052 (2-[1-(ethoxyimino)butyl]-5-[2-(ethylthio)-propyl]-3-hydroxy-2-cylcohexen-1-one) mixed with Atplus 411F (0.5% vol/vol) were evaluated in 1979 and 1981. Control of barley and wheat was good to excellent with applications at 0.3 or 0.4 kg/ha and seed yields of canola were increased.Key words: Barley, wheat, canola, BAS 9052

Endophytic bacteria hold tremendous potential for use as biocontrol agents. Our study aimed to investigate the biocontrol activity of Pseudomonas fluorescens BRZ63, a new endophyte of oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) against Rhizoctonia solani W70, Colletotrichum dematium K, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum K2291, and Fusarium avenaceum. In addition, features crucial for biocontrol, plant growth promotion, and colonization were assessed and linked with the genome sequences. The in vitro tests showed that BRZ63 significantly inhibited the mycelium growth of all tested pathogens and stimulated germination and growth of oilseed rape seedlings treated with fungal pathogens. The BRZ63 strain can benefit plants by producing biosurfactants, siderophores, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase, and ammonia as well as phosphate solubilization. The abilities of exopolysaccharide production, autoaggregation, and biofilm formation additionally underline its potential to plant colonization and hence biocontrol. The effective colonization properties of the BRZ63 strain were confirmed by microscopy observations of EGFP-expressing cells colonizing the root surface and epidermal cells of Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0. Genome mining identified many genes related to the biocontrol process, such as transporters, siderophores, and other secondary metabolites. All analyses revealed that the BRZ63 strain is an excellent endophytic candidate for biocontrol of various plant pathogens and plant growth promotion.
