Crop Stand

Sowing density can have a strong impact on crop stand development during wheat growing cycle. In organic and low-input agriculture, and therefore with minimum or nil use of chemical herbicides, increased sowing density is expected to affect not only grain yield but also weed suppression. In this study we tested, under Mediterranean conditions, six common wheat cultivars (three modern and three heritage) and two three-component mixtures (arranged by combining the three modern or the three heritage cultivars). The different crop stands were tested at sowing densities of 250 (low) and 400 (high, similar to standard sowing density used by local farmers) viable seeds m-2 for two growing seasons. We did not detect a significant effect of crop stand diversity (single cultivars vs mixtures) on grain yield and weed suppression. Differences were ascribed to type of cultivars used (heritage vs modern). Compared to high sowing density, in modern cultivars grain yield did not decrease significantly with low sowing density whereas in heritage cultivars it increased by 15.6%, possibly also because of 21.5% lower plant lodging. Weed biomass increased with low sowing density both in heritage and modern cultivar crop stand types. However, heritage crop stands had, on average, a lower weed biomass (56%) than modern crop stands. Moreover, weed biomass in heritage crop stands at low density (6.82 ± 1.50 g m-2) was lower than that of modern cultivars at the same sowing density (15.54 ± 3.35 g m-2), confirming the higher suppressive potential of the former. We can conclude that lower sowing density can be advisable when using heritage crop stands as it keeps productivity while decreasing plant lodging and maintaining weeds under control.

Genetic Mechanisms

Pyricularia oryzae is composed of pathotypes that show host specificity at the plant genus level. To elucidate the genetic mechanisms of the incompatibility between the Eleusine pathotype (pathogenic on finger millet) and common wheat, an Eleusine isolate (MZ5-1-6) was crossed with a Triticum isolate (Br48) pathogenic on wheat, and resulting F1 cultures were sprayed onto common wheat cultivars Hope, Norin 4 (N4), and Chinese Spring (CS). On Hope, avirulent and virulent cultures segregated in a 3:1 ratio, suggesting that two avirulence genes are involved. They were tentatively designated as eA1 and eA2. On N4 and CS, the segregation ratio was not significantly deviated from the 7:1, 15:1, or 31:1 ratios, suggesting that three or more genes are involved. A comparative analysis of the segregation patterns suggested that two of these genes were eA1 and eA2. A complementation test indicated that the third gene (tentatively designated as eA3) was the Ao9 type of the PWT3 gene controlling the avirulence of Avena and Lolium isolates on wheat. The fourth gene (tentatively designated as eA4) was detected by backcrossing 200R72, an F1 culture lacking eA1, eA2, and eA3, with Br48. Comparative analyses of phenotypes and the presence and/or absence of molecular markers in the F1 population revealed that some cultures were avirulent on N4/CS in spite of lacking eA1, eA2, eA3, and eA4, indicating the presence of the fifth gene (tentatively designated as eA5). Taken together, we conclude that at least five avirulence genes are involved in the incompatibility between MZ5-1-6 and N4/CS.

Exploratory Experiment

Vulnerability of seven common wheat cultivars to nine major species of stored-product beetles was determined in two experiments by measuring multiplication rates on whole and crushed seeds at 30 °C and 70% relative humidity for 12 wk. Susceptibility of a cultivar to an insect was assumed to be proportional to the multiplication of that insect. Vulnerability of cultivars varied considerably depending on the insect species infesting the seed. Whole seeds generally were less susceptible to insects than crushed seeds, except for Sitophilus spp. and Rhyzopertha dominica. In the first exploratory experiment using three cultivars and nine insect species, whole seeds of Norstar, HY320 and Neepawa were least susceptible to Tribolium audax and Oryzaephilus mercator, and most susceptible to Sitophilus oryzae and R. dominica. In the second experiment using six cultivars and six insect species, susceptibility of whole seeds appeared to be related to the kernel hardness of a cultivar with Glenlea and Neepawa being least susceptible to infestation by Cryptolestes ferrugineus, O. surinamensis, T. castaneum and T. confusum. Kernel hardness either did not affect or slightly affected the multiplication rates of Sitophilus spp. and R. dominica. Generally, soft wheat cultivars grown in western Canada are at a greater risk of postharvest insect damage than are the hard red spring cultivars; HY320 which is intermediate in kernel hardness may be prone to greater insect infestation.Key words: Wheat, Norstar, HY320, stored-product beetles
