Germplasm resistant to common root rot was developed from crossing Aegilops ovata with Triticum aestivum, using Chinese Spring ph 1b genetic stock and the cultivar Leader. The germplasm lines had yellow flour pigment and a longer mixing time and lower SDS sedimentation volume, falling number, and mixograph peak height than Leader. Yet, for most agronomic and quality traits, the germplasm was similar to that of Leader and Neepawa. Seed was classed as CWRS. This germplasm represents a different source of genes for resistance to common root rot than currently available in red spring wheat cultivars or breeding lines.

Three spring wheat germplasm lines were developed with higher levels of resistance to common root rot than is currently available in CWRS and CPS wheats. Grain yield, plant height, flour yield, flour protein, sedimentation volume, and other quality traits of the lines were similar to those of Biggar.

Inheritance of reaction to common root rot, caused chiefly by Cochliobolus sativus, was studied in F3 populations of wheat, Triticum aestivum, from crosses between the root-rot-resistant, hollow-stemmed varieties, Thatcher and Pembina, and the moderately root-rot-susceptible, solid-stemmed variety, CT 733. The results indicated that the resistance of Thatcher and Pembina, which appear to have the same gene complement, is controlled by a major recessive gene and one or two minor genes.No association was found between inheritance of root-rot reaction and the inheritance of stem solidness which determines resistance to the wheat stem sawfly (Cephus cinctus). Therefore, there should be no difficulty in incorporating root-rot resistance into sawfly-resistant varieties.

Disease Rating

Common root rot in Triticum aestivum cultivar Manitou caused primarily by Cochliobolus sativus was followed during plant development in 1969, 1970, and 1971 at Matador, Saskatchewan. Plants were sampled at intervals, and three variables based mainly on the occurrence of lesions on subcrown internodes were studied: number of diseased plants per square meter; percentage of diseased plants; and disease rating which integrated percentage of diseased plants and disease severity on each plant. All variables increased with time, and the progression curves in all 3 years were hyperbolic, indicating that the increases were like those of a simple interest disease as described by Van der Plank. In two of the years, almost 100% of the plants were diseased considerably before the end of the season. The transformation proposed by Van der Plank for simple interest diseases, log10[1/(1 − x)], was applied to the percentages of diseased plants, and regressions were calculated. The slopes of these lines (infection rates) were as follows: 1969, 0.99% plants per day; 1970, 1.32%; and 1971, 1.96%. In 1969 the onset of disease was later than in 1970 and 1971, and there was correspondingly less disease at the end of the growing season.

Treated Seed

The effects of seed treatment with imazalil at 0.2 and 0.3 g a.i./kg seed on subcrown internode length and occurrence of coleoptile-node-tillers (CNT) was studied in four spring wheat cultivars at two locations in Saskatchewan. Without treatment, Cypress had the longest internodes followed in descending order by Glenlea, Neepawa, and Wascana. Generally, plants from imazalil-treated seed had significantly shorter subcrown internodes. Only a few plants from nontreated seed produced CNT and of these, many were soft or aborted, while the treated seed produced a number of CNT and many of these were firm tillers. The possible importance of these morphological changes in the reduction of common root rot, on drought resistance, cold hardiness, and yield is discussed.

Common Root Rot

The effects of common root rot (Cochliobolus sativus) on components of grain yield in naturally infected Triticum aestivum cultivar Manitou were studied at Matador, Saskatchewan, by sampling plants at maturity in 1969, 1970, and 1971. Plants were sorted into severe (SE), moderate (MO), slight (SL), and clean (CL) categories based mainly on the extent of lesions on the subcrown internodes. The number of tillers per plant, the number and weight of grains per head, the weight per head, and the 1000-kernel weight in each category were determined. Increasing values of all five components were consistently associated with decreasing disease severity. SE was mostly significantly different from the other three categories in all components except 1000-kernel weight; differences between SL and MO were usually non-significant. CL and SL were mostly significantly different for the number of tillers per plant and weight per head but non-significant for the weight and number of grains per head and 1000-kernel weight. Apparently, the major effect of common root rot was to reduce the number of tillers per plant and number of grains per head.
