Crown rust affects plant performance and interference ability of Italian ryegrass in the post-epidemic generation
2007-12-01
Abstract excerpt
This study investigated the effects of crown rust (caused by Puccinia coronata f.sp. lolii) in Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum) on plant growth and interference ability in the post-epidemic generation. Rust-infected Italian ryegrass plants produced seeds with lower weights than healthy plants (on average proportionately 0·36 lower). Furthermore, the early seedling vigour of plants from rust-infected parents w...
