Goals / Objectives
Continue disease management trials across wheat classes and environments to evaluate products under different environmental conditions. Provide a regional DON diagnostic service for scab researchers.
Project Methods
Establish a set of core treatments to compare to the untreated check. Take disease ratings at the soft dough stage of kernel development and include FHB incidence, FHB head severity, flag leaf disease severity, and other head disease resistance and severity, if present. Provide DON analysis for research projects east of the Mississippi. FY06 Project - Regional Diagnostic Laboratory Providing DON Analytical Services for Regional FHB Research Projects
