Abstract

Oat accessions characterized by multicomponent resistance to Fusarium disease of grain from the collection of the Vavilov All-Russian Research Institute of Plant Industry (VIR) are selected. Resistance of the accessions is evaluated on the basis of three parameters: Fusarium damaged grain (FDG): percent of infected grain, quantity of mycotoxins, and DNA content of trichothecene-producing fungi. Five oat landrace accessions and two cultivars Argamak (Russia) and Kuromi (Japan) are the most resistant to infection of grain and accumulation of mycotoxins.
