Studies on the cultivation of resistant sugar beet varieties for the control of Rhizoctonia solani in sugar beet maize crop rotations
Project
Project code: JKI-A-08-1210
Contract period: 01.05.2014
- 31.12.2014
Purpose of research: Applied research
The increasing importance of energy plants in Germany has led to an increase in the acreage of maize. In several regions maize is used often as previous before sugar beet. The susceptibility of maize against Rhizoctonia solani causes an increase of the inoculum potential and thus an infestation of the beet. Susceptible beet varieties plant outages are young (dumping off) or below by the late turnip head rot in the sequence. In addition to yield losses caused the mushroom quality impairments that can restrict the processing. A setting of sugar beet production in infested areas would result in permanently. In the planned project involves procedures to combat the harmful pathogen Rhizoctonia solani to work in the sugar beet. Substances in the beet seeds will be stored using the variety performance and modern coatings technology, and which allow protection of young seedlings of the young stages. In combination with variety resistance, an integrated approach to the sustainable control of Rhizoctonia could be drawn up solani.
