Partner P3: Mattias Hermann, Germany P9: Domnica Daniela, Romania P14: Lenka Nedomova, Czech Republik P8: Luigi Cativelli, Valeria Terzi, Italy (without artificial inoculation)
Comparison of planning and course 2008 • Experimental design: According to Web-application and plan • Seeding: As planned, minor differences • Inoculation: Nearly as planned, with some problems • Trait measurements: Differences due to local circumstances/conditions
First Results Precision of the experiments? • Comparison variances over locations and estimation of Cultivar x Location interaction effects • Coefficients of correlations between locations
Conclusions: Interactions and variances normal as expected; Good concordance between single experiments in high heritable traits
Inoculation results • Romania: Successful, but assessment of field symptoms very difficult, only yes or no; FDK-seed percentages are better in differentiation • Czech Republik, Italy and Germany: Nearly no visual symptoms in plots or harvested kernels (but in Aranka) • ELISA results are needed for further differentiation
Coefficient of correlation between FHB-scorings and other traits (Romania)
Comparison between inoculated and noninoculated plots (effects of inoculation)
Summary and conclusions • Experimental design and realisation good • Viewable Fusarium infection low, possible reasons are resistances, weather conditions, low virulence of Fusarium isolates used, etc. • No correlation of Fusarium infection level and other traits, as in other studies • ELISA results are needed for further differentiation
