Abstract
Inoculation experiments with 14 genotypes of oats (10 cultivars and 4 lines) were performed during 1996, 1997 and 1998 in Sitaniec, South-Eastern Poland. Panicles of oats were inoculated with a conidial suspension of Fusarium avenaceum, which caused a reduction in yield by 33% and in 1000 kernel weight (TKW) by 21%. During the period between inoculation and harvest, F. avenaceum was able to accumulate moniliformin (MON) in kernels at an average level of 0.13mgkg−1 (μgg−1). The highest reduction of yield components caused by the F. avenaceum inoculation was found for cv. Santor, followed by lines CHD 1171, STH 2795 and cvs: Kwant and Farys, while cvs Slawko, Dukat, Borys and Komes exhibited the highest resistance to the disease in terms of TKW and yield reductions after inoculation.
