Hypovirulent strains and control of take-all 3a Esperance, 3b Newdegate. Results from the preliminary studies which commenced in 1978 have shown several interesting trends in the behaviour of the field inoculum of the take-all fungus (TAF). "Disease severity Assay" has emerged as a potentially useful assay of field soil. This assay reflects the level of disease severity (on a 0-5 scale) caused by the resident inoculum of the …

Pasture Species Research, C. M. Francis

Experimental Summaries - Plant Research

EARLY MATURING MEDICS Early maturing Libyan lines with some tolerance to bluegreen aphids were sown at 6 sites, five in Western Australia and one in South Australia. Seed yield and hard seed data are currently being collated. Maturity and vigour was assessed at all sites and many of the new introductions are earlier than cv. Harbinger and its equal in vegetative growth. A much larger range (300 lines) was grown at Medina and will be introduced into country sites next year.

Kabatiella Research. In cooperation with Dr. D.L. Chatel, screening of introductions for resistance to Kabatiella caulivora continued in 1980. …
