Screening Winter Wheat Genotypes for Resistance Traits against Rhizoctonia cerealis and Rhizoctonia solani Infection

Rhizoctonia cerealis and solani are considered to be among the most harmful soil-borne pathogens for crop plants globally. The lack of effective protection requirement minimize use chemical pesticides necessitate need develop alternative protective methods. One such method is resistance breeding against biotic abiotic stresses. Here, we present studies on presence traits in winter wheat genotypes that evaluate plants’ above two pathogens, both field laboratory environments. In environment, incidence severity sharp eyespot were studied using 132 cultivars, where random samples at BBCH 75–77 collected analysis. degree intensity was determined, applying 0–4° scale. susceptibility cultivars R. (AG-D subgroup I) (AG-5) also under conditions. laboratory, test pieces potato dextrose agar colonized by isolates placed onto filter paper soaked with distilled water then into Petri dish. Infection roots, coleoptiles leaves assessed after 15 days 10 solani. None tested found asymptomatic pathogens. A moderate observed as Anthus, Baryton, Bellenus, Borderland Benatka, Blonde, Cubus, Estero, Flairway. However, classification those associated tests resulted severe symptoms tests. Hence, experiments provide reliable measurements determine effects plants.
