Abstract/Contents: | "Selection of main cool-season turfgrasses (perennial ryegrass and red fescue) for resistance to red thread disease caused by Laetisaria fuciformis has not progressed during the last 30 years because of low reproducibility of experiments carried out under natural infection. In this study, evaluation of a set of the turfgrass cultivars, including non-host fodder grasses as control, was performed in a climatic chamber, a cold house and in the field using three types of artificial inoculum, and correlations between trials were analysed. In general, cultivars of Festuca rubra were more susceptible to the disease but differentiated better than cultivars of Lolium perenne. Significant interactions between cultivars of L. perenne and F. rubra and isolates of L. fuciformis were found. The fungus was also able to colonize leaves of sow thistle and wheat seedlings. In field conditions and in the glass cold-house Dactylis glomerata was found to be relatively resistant to red thread disease. A possible selection programme is proposed." |
