Abstract/Contents: | "Azoxystrobin provided protective and curative effects against stem rust (caused by Puccinia graminis subsp. graminicola) of inoculated perennial ryegrass under field conditions, significantly reducing disease severity compared with the nontreated check when applied as much as 15 days before infection or 14 days after infection. Propiconazole had a signifcant effect when applied 13, but not 15, days before infection or 7, but not 9, days after infection. Either fungicide was well described by a second- or third-order polynomial with time (days or stem rust latent periods) as the independent cariable. When symptomatic plants were sprayed with a fungicide, subsequently urediniospore production per pustule was reduced by 73% in propiconazole-treated plants and by 95% in azoxystrobin-treated plants. Azoxystrobin modestly but significantly reduced germinability of urediniospores from sprayed pustules, unlike propconazole. These differences between the two fungicides in physical modes of action resulted in a marked difference in their effects on secondary, within-plant spread of the disease. In normal disease development, sporulation from the inner (adaxial) face of pustules on the flag-leaf sheath produces inoculum that leads to numerous contiguous secondary infections along the length of the emerging inflorescence, but only 7% of azoxystrobin-treated sheath pustules had sporulation from the adazial surface compared with 72 and 90% of propiconazole-treated and nontreated pustules, respectively. Tillers treated with propiconazole early in the process of within-plant spread had significantly greater final stem rust severity than thoes treated with azoxystrobin at this time. Results of these experiments will allow effects of fungicide application to be incorporated into quantitative epidemic models that describe disease development as a function of environment and plant phenology." |
