Effects of Fungicide Chemistry and Application Timing on Fusarium Head Blight and Deoxynivalenol in Soft Red Winter Wheat Effects of Fungicide Chemistry and Application Timing on Fusarium Head Blight and Deoxynivalenol in Soft Red Winter Wheat THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Daisy L. D’Angelo, B.A. Graduate Program in Plant Pathology The Ohio State University 2013 Master's Examination: Dr. Pierce A. Paul, Advisor Dr. Larry V. Madden Dr. Mike A. Ellis Copyright by Daisy L. D’Angelo 2013 Abstract Demethylation Inhibitors (DMI) and Quinone Outside Inhibitors fungicides are important components of wheat disease management programs. However, only members of former group are usually recommended for the control of Fusarium head blight (FHB) and deoxynivalenol (DON). Since wet, humid conditions during anthesis and early grain fill are highly conducive to FHB development, DMI fungicides are commonly recommended for FHB management when anthesis coincides with wet weather. However, there are several practical limitations to applying a fungicide at anthesis. Research is needed to determine whether applications made after anthesis will provide adequate control of this disease and its associated toxins in soft red winter wheat under field conditions in the U.S. Midwest. In the case of the QoI, these are not usually recommended to FHB and DON management because some members of this group have been reported to increase instead of decrease DON in harvested grain. However, it is unclear whether all QoIs affect DON in the same manner and whether DON response to QoIs vary with application timing. The objectives of this study were to: 1) determine the effect of post- anthesis applications of 19% tebuconazole + 19% prothioconazole and 8.6% metconazole on FHB and DON in soft red winter wheat (SRWW) under different naturally infected and artificially inoculated field conditions, 2) determine whether the magnitude of FHB and DON responses to post-anthesis fungicide applications varied with active ingredient, ii cultivar, and baseline disease and toxin levels, and 3) estimate the efficacy (based on mean percent control of FHB index and DON) of post-anthesis treatments relative to untreated and anthesis reference treatments.; 4) determine the effects of two QoI active ingredients (22.9% azoxystrobin and 23.6% pyraclostrobin), relative to untreated checks and DMI (19% tebuconazole + 19% prothioconazole) reference treatments, on DON contamination of wheat grain and spikes; 5) determine whether the effect of QoIs on FHB index and DON was influenced by application timing; and 6) determine whether the relationships among index, DON, and Fusarium damaged kernels varied with active ingredient and application timing. iii Dedicated to My Husband, Craig E.

The increase in the global population has entailed an increase in the demand for agriculture in recent decades. Accordingly, there has been worldwide pressure to find means to improve the quality and productivity of agricultural crops. Antifungal agents have been widely used as an alternative for managing fungal diseases affecting several crops. However, the unregulated use of antifungals can jeopardize public health.

Application of fungicides is commonly used to effectively control the disease, although they are undesirable due to environmental consequences. Use of resistant cultivars would be the most optimal solution, but there are no cultivars with high level of resistance available on the market. In the present thesis, assessments of early blight resistance both in leaves and tubers of potato cultivars/clones were performed by applying different screening methods (field and greenhouse). Plant defence signalling in response to A. solani infection with main emphasis on salicylic (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA) hormones, was also studied. Furthermore, the genetic variability in A. solani populations from different potato growing regions of southeast Sweden was investigated. The fungal isolates were analysed for the F129L substitutions, which are associated with loss of sensitivity to QoI fungicides.

Currently, disease control in barley fields relies on SDHI and DMI fungicides, which might be threatened by R. collo-cygni isolates that are well-adapted to fungicide pressure. In a two-year study, 353 R. collo-cygni isolates were collected from spring barley fields in Estonia. A total of 153 R. collo-cygni isolates were examined for sensitivity to azoles (DMIs; prothioconazole-desthio, epoxiconazole, mefentrifluconazole) and succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDHIs; boscalid, fluxapyroxad). Epoxiconazole was the least effective and a new fungicide mefentrifluconazole was the most effective DMI. Among SDHIs, fluxapyroxad was more effective than boscalid. Also, single R. collo-cygni isolates with high resistance to tested fungicides occurred, which could affect fungicide control of the pathogen. The entire collection of R. collo-cygni was analysed for mutations in fungicide target proteins. Six mutations were identified in CYP51 gene, the most dominant being I381T, I384T, and S459C. Also, numerous point mutations in the SdhC Citation: Kiiker, R.; Juurik, M.; Mäe, gene were present. The mutation G143A in strobilurin target protein CytB dominates in over 80% of A.
